NDC Proposes complete Law Dealing with Election Security
The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress, Asiedu Nketiah at a press conference suggested that there should be a complete law dealing with election security matters.

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has proposed stringent measures to institute a complete law dealing with election security matters before, during and after elections
According to the NDC, it is their belief that elections degenerate into insecurity when impunity is allowed in a full range which they want that quashed from the system going forward.
Speaking at a press conference in Accra, the General Secretary of the NDC, Mr Johnson Asiedu Nketiah said the party has been disappointed by the conduct and deployment of security during the 2020 elections
He indicated the party seeks to remove any doubt about the deployment of security officers in any elections
Asiedu Nketiah bemoaned, as at now, there is no comprehensive and composite law about how election security ought to be organized, as they propose for a complete law dealing with such activities
He again proposed an amendment of the existing law which deals with the prosecution of electoral offences to fast track justice.
Asiedu Nketiah, therefore, urged all other proposals of the NDC to be put into consideration to help curb electoral disputes.
On Issues related to the IPAC meeting, he proposed that the Inter-Party Advisory Committee needs a strong law to protect and direct its affairs instead of allowing the Electoral Commission to deliver her message, meanwhile, that is not the rationale to which the IPAC group was formed.
In addition to the election campaign, he proposed that all political parties need equal media coverage or attention from the state own media towards the election campaigns.
