Dr Edward Omane Boamah, the Director of Elections and IT for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has strongly reacted to a press conference held by Jean Mensa, the chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), on December 19.
In a Facebook post shortly after the media encounter, Dr Omane Boamah accused Jean Mensa of being influenced by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to dilute the NDC’s overwhelming 2/3 majority.
The NDC official condemned the press conference as “useless” and warned the EC Chair not to “tempt us beyond our endurance,” emphasising that the NDC was serious in its demands.
He demanded that the Electoral Commission provide pink sheets for all constituencies where declarations were not made, to demonstrate that the NDC had secured victory.
Dr Omane Boamah also expressed frustration with Mensa’s refusal to convene an emergency Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting.

He claimed that her decision to avoid the meeting was an attempt to dodge crucial questions that needed to be addressed, further escalating tensions between the NDC and the EC.
The Electoral Commission (EC) during a press conference explained its decision to relocate collation centres for 12 constituencies to the National Police Training School (NPTS), stating that the move was based on recommendations from the Ghana Police Service.
According to the EC, the measure was taken to ensure the safety of its staff and to protect the integrity of the electoral process amid growing threats and disruptions.
