NDC cancels Amenfi East constituency election

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has called off its constituency-level elections in Amenfi East in the Western Region following challenges encountered during the party’s nationwide internal polls.

The cancellation was among several difficulties recorded during the exercise, which also experienced delays in some constituencies due, in part, to challenges with the distribution of ballot papers.

Despite the setbacks, the party has expressed satisfaction with the general conduct of the elections, describing the exercise as an improvement over the previous one.

The NDC says it will review the challenges encountered during the polls and use the lessons learned to improve preparations for the upcoming regional elections.

The party’s Acting Director of Elections and IT, Mahdi Jibril, disclosed the cancellation in an interview with Accra-based Channel One TV, while assessing the conduct of the elections.

“I would say so far, it is an improvement from the last election. I think the party is happy with the process,” he said, adding that, apart from the cancellation in Amenfi East and other logistical challenges, the exercise had been satisfactory.
