During a discussion on Adom FM’s Burning Issues, Mahdi Jibril, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Director of Elections, questioned the New Patriotic Party (NPP) for not addressing Dr. Joseph Asamoah’s appointment as Deputy Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC) alongside their criticism of Emelia Afi Agbenyo’s appointment.
Jibril urged the NPP to reveal the reasons behind their selective criticism of Agbenyo, expressing their curiosity about any information the party might possess about Asamoah that they have not shared with the public. The controversy surrounding Agbenyo’s appointment stems from her past involvement in NDC political campaigning and its potential impact on the Electoral Commission’s perceived impartiality.
Jibril highlighted the NPP’s previous stance that the Electoral Commissioner does not influence electoral outcomes and urged the party to concentrate on election preparations and improving their performance instead.
