The outgoing Member of Parliament for Tamale Central Hon. Inusah Fuseini has told Apexnewsgh.com in an exclusive interview that all options are on the table for the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to regain the will of the people.
“All options are on the table, we are particularly presently reviewing all the pink sheets, we are reviewing all the documented instruction of the Electoral Laws of this country, and those doing that are our lawyers and they will advise on the appropriate cause of action. Like I have said and I would say again to you, that nobody, and I repeat nobody has a duty to accept the results or outcome of a flawed election. So, it is within our right to reject the results. Recent happenings at the Electoral Commission even vindicates our position. The Electoral Commission publicly declared Nana Akufo Addo President 2 days ago, and in less than 24 hours, the figures that were the subject matter of the declaration were changed and the figures keep changing at the Electoral Commission. The EC in the first correction they did to the figures they publicly announced as figures for the election, they said that they had inadvertently used. How can a commission set up for the purposes of collating election results come out with that excuse of inadvertent?”
He believes, something fundamentally wrong is happening to the country’s electoral processes. And it is in the interest of all democratically-minded persons in the country to audit the outcome of the results to find them through the will of the people. “If we do an audit of the outcome of the result, it will give us the realistic and accurate appreciation of where and will of the people is moving towards, it will also give us an accurate and realistic figure of how the region voted because every vote counts.”
Responding to the protest and burning of tyres witnessed in some parts of the country by some party supporters and some aggrieved followers of John Dramani Mahama, Mr. Fuseini said, John Dramani Mahama has not sanctioned anyone to go onto curse any havoc because he believes in the country constitutional mandate.
“John Dramani Mahama made it clear, he stated categorically that the party will not accept the results, he did not go ahead to declare himself president of the country, because he is a law-abiding citizen of this country. He said all the options are on the table, he only said that we are reviewing the outcome of the elections and in due course, we will take action. John Dramani Mahama has not encouraged, motivated, or asked people to go onto the street and demonstrate, he has not said that. Mind you, it is the outcome of the presidential as well as some constituencies in the parliamentary elections that are at stake. Even though I am not the official spokesperson for John Dramani Mahama, I can tell you as a matter of fact that John Dramani Mahama has not asked people to go onto the street.”
However, he pointed that the reason why the NDC will not accept the results declared, is because they have wasted time, energy, and resources, but only the for EC to procured the election for President Nana Akufo Addo he told Apexnewsgh.com
