    THE LOGO IS WELL JUSTIFIED,DEFENDED AND ABOVE ALL DEMONSTRATES THE INDEPENDENCY OF THE EC.

  • .^. 9 years ago

    The EC should remove her demonic logo as there is nothing to portray election or Ghana. The coat of arms with the black star could easily be identified as Ghana's.

    This woman is just an employee. If Ghana pays her salary then she must involve Ghanaians in decisions that affect all Ghanaians. We are not in a military dictatorship.

    Vague and full of idiosyncrasies. The EC chairwoman must know that she is occupying a sensitive seat in our public institutions. The fact of the commission's independence must not be a leeway for unwanted and unpopular behavi ...
