Stop the political 'patapaa' and go to court - Minister to IMANI

Central Regional Minister, Kwamena Duncan has asked IMANI Ghana to go to court if they are not happy with the Electoral Commission's decision to compile a new voters' register.

Policy think-tank IMANI Africa, suspects a ‘corrupt procurement gig’ in the Electoral Commission's decision to compile a new voters' register.

At the press conference in Accra on Tuesday, March 10, Vice-President (in Charge of Research) at IMANI Africa, Bright Simons argued that the EC’s claim that it will cost just about US$56 million to procure a new system is deceitful.

Kwamena Duncan who was speaking to Kwami Sefa Kayi on Wednesday's edition of 'Kokrokoo' replied: "based on what you said; so what should we do? Why don’t you go to court . . . it will be dangerous to stop The EC, a constitutional body with a clear mandate from doing its work.

"That will be constitutional lawlessness. This recycling of matters we have heard over and over, you will ask yourself is there an agenda? Otherwise, the Supreme Court is ready for more cases . . . go to court. What is the meaning of this patapaa; political party patapaa?"
