President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has cautioned all political parties to desist from declaring election results ahead of the Electoral Commission (EC).
He says the EC is the only constitutionally mandated body to announce election results that reflect the will of the people.
Speaking during the Bar Conference Conference in Kumasi on Monday September 9, he said “The EC has the role to declare election results, political parties must refrain from declaring election results.”
Meanwhile, Chair of the Electoral Commission (EC) Jena Adukwei Mensa has assured that the process for the conduct of the general elections will be peaceful, transparent, and fair.
The Electoral Commission has formed a team of experts to assess the presidential nomination forms presented by the aspirants to ascertain whether they meet standards.
