Akufo-Addo warns against rigging in 2016 The 2016 flagbearer of the main opposition New
Patriotic Party Nana Akufo-Addo has served notice
that the party will not tolerate rigging in the
2016 elections.
“Anybody who has decided to steal votes in the
upcoming election, I plead with you; please take
that idea off your head.
“We need to have a clean and transparent
elections. I have confidence and trust in God that
if the elections are held in a transparent
atmosphere, I will emerge victorious,” the
former attorney general told a charged crowd of
NPP supporters Sunday.
Disputes over the 2012 elections led to eight
months long hearing of an election petition at the
Supreme Court.
Akufo-Addo will be representing the NPP for the
3rd consecutive time in the December 2016
elections after losing both the 2008 and 2012
elections.
He has retained his running mate for both
elections, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, who was a former
deputy governor of the Bank of Ghana. Source - Starrfmonline
