The Care for Free and Fair Elections Ghana (CARE Ghana) has called upon the Electoral Commission (EC) to enhance transparency ahead of the December 7 polls by releasing the names and images of all returning and deputy returning officers.
In a statement released on Thursday, May 2, signed by Executive Director David Kumi Addo, CARE Ghana emphasised the necessity of this measure to safeguard the country’s democratic integrity.
The group pledges to diligently review the list to identify any politically biassed individuals who could potentially disrupt the electoral process.
“This transparency measure is not merely a matter of protocol; it is a vital safeguard against the insidious influence of criminal elements seeking to hijack our democracy for their selfish ends.
“Care for Free and Fair Elections Ghana (“CARE” GHANA) stands ready to fulfill its civic duty by meticulously scrutinizing the backgrounds and affiliations of these officers. Our extensive network of vigilant citizens will spare no effort in identifying and exposing any individuals politically tainted.
“By shining a spotlight on these infiltrators, we can prevent them from wielding undue influence over the electoral process and ensure that the voice of the people is heard loud and clear on Election Day.”
