The New Patriotic Party have identified errors in the election petition filed by the National Democratic Congress to challenge the 2020 elections results in court, and have made certain that it is ready to expose the meaninglessness of Mahama’s petition that denies electoral truth.

According to the NPP, the NDC has no material evidence to back their claims having misled their supporters that they won the elections without evidence and employed them to “use lies, threats, violence, and intimidation to seek forlornly to overrule the manifest will of the people as freely expressed on 7th December 2020.”

They have therefore held the presidential candidate of the NDC accountable for breaching the Peace pact and challenged him to call off his supporters from the streets just as the NPP did in 2012 when they challenged the electoral decision.

“It is quite curious that John Dramani Mahama, the NDC flagbearer and Petitioner, who grounds his Petition on supposed errors made by the Electoral Commission, has himself submitted a Petition fraught with errors, including requesting a run-off between himself and the Electoral Commission,” the statement said.

“It is also unfortunate that even after filing the Petition in court, the NDC led by John Dramani Mahama continues to incite supporters to pour onto the streets to cause chaos and anarchy.

In a statement released by the Communications Director Yaw Buabeng on Thursday, December 31, 2020, the incumbent government have assured that without an iota of doubt, the December 7, 2020 election was won fairly and supporters should not be dismayed.

“The NPP is assured that the 7th December 2020 Elections was won fair and square. Indeed, the evidence presented by the NDC has only reassured the people of Ghana that Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo won the elections. The fact of transparency of the General Elections was also resoundingly affirmed by the myriad of local and international observers that participated in the electoral process.”
