Dr. Joe Anokye, the Director-General of the National Communications Authority (NCA), has reaffirmed the public that potential internet disruptions will not compromise the integrity of the upcoming December 7 elections.
He addressed concerns about recent cuts in undersea fibre optic cables, crucial for internet connectivity in Ghana, attributing the disruptions to natural causes rather than individual actions.
Dr. Anokye emphasized the government’s commitment to upholding fairness in the electoral process and expressed confidence in the independence of the Electoral Commission (EC). He urged Ghanaians to trust in the transparency of the EC and dismiss any assertions suggesting political influence.
Despite challenges in pinpointing the causes of the cable cuts due to considerable distances between the cables, Dr. Anokye assured that efforts are being made to maintain stable internet connectivity. He denied allegations of the government intending to disrupt internet services on Election Day for rigging purposes.
In his interview with Accra base radio monitored by Apexnewsgh, Dr. Anokye’s reassurances aimed to alleviate concerns and instill trust in the electoral process leading up to the December 7 elections.
