New Register: Leave EC to do its work – Agyapa Mercer tells Mahama

Andrew Agyapa Mercer has urged former President John Dramani Mahama and his NDC members to desist from dictating to the Electoral Commission(EC) because it will never under any circumstance work with their advice.

Speaking on UTV’s ‘Adekye Nsroma’ newspaper discussion programme, he specifically in reference to former President Mahama stated: “leave the EC to perform it’s mandatory duties per the rules of law binding it, just like you told us during your days in office, no amount of words or advice from you will change their decision taken towards the 2020 general elections.”

According to him the EC is a mandatory body and as such knows what is best for their office.

“So whether it will compile a new voters register, validation or limited registration to clean the existing voters register to be fit for the 2020 elections, it is not the task of the NDC to decide . . . they should keep their perfect decisions for better policies towards the 2020 elections,” Agyapa Mercer stated.
