The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Frimpong Kodua, has warned against any attempts to tamper with the results of the parliamentary elections.
Speaking at a press conference on Sunday evening, Mr Kodua called on the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Dr. George Akuffo Dampare, to maintain law and order at collation centers across the nation.
He accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of orchestrating chaos in constituencies where the NPP had clearly emerged victorious.
“Indeed, data that made our flag bearer concede this morning shows clearly that the NPP has won the constituencies I’ve mentioned. But the NDC, knowing very well that they have lost these seats to the NPP, are unwilling to accept their fate and are desperately seeking to compel the EC to do their bidding,” he stated.
Justin Kodua condemned the acts of violence attributed to NDC supporters and stressed that his party would not tolerate any attempts to tamper with the election results.
“We vehemently condemn these attacks and are serving notice that we shall resist every attempt to temper the results of the parliamentary elections in these constituencies,” he warned.
Reiterating his call for swift action, Mr Kodua reminded the IGP of his commitment to upholding the integrity of the electoral process.
“Mr. IGP, you made a promise to political parties on two different occasions when we met you at your office, and your words were unambiguous—that you’ll see to it that we have free, fair, and transparent elections,” he said.
He urged the IGP to safeguard citizens’ rights, ensure their safety at the collation centers and stop any unlawful intimidation.
Additionally, he appealed to the NDC leadership to call their supporters to order and condemn the acts of violence.
