Mahama will still lose even if his wife is EC boss - Abu Ramadan

The former National Youth Organizer of the People’s National Convention (PNC), Mr. Abu Ramadan, says all moves by the Electoral Commission to rig the 2016 general elections for President John Dramani Mahama will not succeed.

Mr. Ramadan says “whether the EC is chaired by Charlotte Osei or the First Lady, Lordina Mahama, President John Dramani Mahama will [still] lose the general election so they should stop what they are doing and do the right thing”.

Mr. Ramadan has filed an application at the Supreme Court urging it to order the EC to validate the voters register as they allege the register has been bloated.

He initially wanted the Court to compel the EC to compile a new register but said the timing was wrong since the general election is on the 7th November.

Mr. Ramadan explained to Atinka News that the EC is in the process of exhibiting the voters register “with just some few additions which doesn’t qualify for validation” and therefore accused the Commission of playing on the intelligence of Ghanaians.

The Supreme Court on Thursday, April 14 2016 adjourned the case for the second time to April 25 because one of the lawyers was indisposed .
