Nana Addo Vindicated Over NDC Access To EC’s Data
The Bolga Central Constituency Communications
Director of the New Patriotic Party, Awonekai A.
Elvis-Figo, has told Daily Guide that the
appearance of his electoral details and picture in
the National Democratic Congress voters’
register confirms Nana Akufo-Addo’s belief
that the ruling NDC has access to the Electoral
Commission’s data.

According to him, he has never registered with NDC
as a member at any level, whether in the past or
even during the recent biometric registration the
NDC did across the country.

“So how did my name and the details on my
National Voter’s ID get into an NDC
voters’ register? The NDC used the same
picture with the same background like it is in the
register. Nana Addo has been saying the National
Democratic Congress has the Electoral
Commission’s data and they keep denying it;
now see the evidence,” he said.

Mr Elvis-Figo, who is also an aide to Rex Asanga,
the NPP’s parliamentary candidate for Bolga
Central, told Daily Guide that on November 15 he
was informed by an NDC friend that his name had
appeared in the register and that despite efforts
to get his name out of the register, his name was
still in the register.

“I suspect they wanted to create a situation
that will create the impression that I was not
loyal to the NPP or the parliamentary candidate.
If not I wonder why they left it after I had drawn
their attention during the exhibition,” he
added.

At the time of filing this report, nothing had
been heard about any court action, as Elvis-Figo
threatened in earlier interviews.

Talking about his boss’ chances in the 2016
parliamentary elections after the NDC’s
primaries, Elvis-Figo said Rex Asanga has a
brighter chance of winning the hearts of the
people of Bolga Central in 2016.

“Those days when people voted for any
candidate at all a party brought for election is
over. In 2016 people will vote for a candidate
that will attract development projects to the
area. People have voted on party lines and those
candidates took them for granted and never
fulfilled their campaign promises. This time what
we are hearing is that the people want
development-oriented people, not just politicians
contesting on party tickets,” Elvis-Figo
stated.
