NDC to propose electoral reforms for next elections in new document

The opposition NDC says it will soon come out with a  document that contains the party’s proposed electoral reforms ahead of the 2024 polls.

Deputy Campaign Coordinator for the NDC during the 2020 elections, Alex Segbefia, speaking to the media on the sidelines of a workshop organised by the Coalition of Domestic Election Observers (CODEO) said the party is putting together a committee to look at the type of reforms they want to see going forward.

“Electoral reforms was a big issue that came up during the party retreat and we are going to table all the reforms we want to see and narrow it down in a paper we would produce for the benefit of the public and the EC as to what we say are the necessary changes we want to see,” the former Minister of Health said as quoted by saltonline.

He added: “It falls into two brackets, one directly for the EC, and some which may need legislation to put in place, which involves government and Parliament.”

The party is hopeful by the end of this year, the proposed reforms would have been in place to build confidence in the EC, to deal with the matter of reforms being implemented in the year of elections.
