Ayariga Picks APC Certificate
Barring any last-minute hitches, the All
People’s Congress (APC) is expected to receive
its Provisional Certificate from the Electoral
Commission (EC) today.

The party, founded by Hassan Ayariga, described as
the 'Supreme Leader' of the APC, currently boasts
of 170 district offices, 10 regional offices and a
national office.

A statement issued in Accra yesterday by the
general secretary of the party stated that the
party was set to receive the certificate at “the
IPAC Conference Room of Electoral Commission at
exactly 1:30 pm today.”

The statement, while entreating members to attend
the function, stated that the ideology of the
party is Social Democratic, precisely Liberal
Socialism.

News of the party receiving its provisional
certificate today comes days after the electoral
body had dismissed media reports that it had
registered APC to operate as a political party.

The EC was emphatic that it had not registered any
new political party this year, discounting media
reports about the purported registration.

The Commission in a statement signed by Christian
Owusu-Parry, Acting Director, Public Affairs said,
“The Electoral Commission wishes to inform the
general public that contrary to reports in the
media, the Commission has not registered any
political parties this year.”

.
It further indicated that people who apply for
registration of their political parties have to
meet certain requirements under the Political
Parties Act 2000 (Act 574).

According to the EC, “Until these requirements
have been met and a party has been issued with a
final registration certificate, the party seeking
registration cannot conduct its activities as a
political party.”

Ayariga's new party shares both logo and name with
President Muhammadu Buhari's APC in Nigeria.

He formed the party after he had lost the bid to
lead the People's National Convention (PNC) to Dr
Edward Mahama, the founder, at the party's
congress last year.

The colours of the party are green, white and
yellow while the symbol is a broom with the motto:
“All Inclusive Governance.”
