NDC sinking Ghana’s democracy with Emelia Agbenyo’s appointment – Miracles Aboagye
The Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dennis Miracles Aboagye, has accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of undermining Ghana’s democracy over the appointment of Emelia Agbenyo as a Deputy Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC).
Dennis Miracles Aboagye, the Communications Director of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), has criticized the National Democratic Congress (NDC) for appointing Emelia Agbenyo as a Deputy Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC). Aboagye argues that Ms Agbenyo's political leanings and past roles associated with the NDC make her unsuitable for an independent role overseeing elections.
He asserts that her appointment threatens Ghana's democracy by undermining the principles of neutrality and accountability. Aboagye pointed out that Agbenyo was a special assistant to Ayariga when he was Deputy Education Minister under the John Mahama administration. He further criticized Agbenyo's political support for John Mahama during the 2020 and 2024 elections, questioning her impartiality for the role.
The NPP leader emphasized that those overseeing elections must be perceived as independent of partisan interests.
