An Economist and Investment Consultant, Kwame Pianim, has
reiterated the importance of the NPP challenging the results of the
2012 elections in court to prove whether the 2012 elections were
free and fair.
According to Mr. Pianim a law suit will prove if there was any form of
manipulation of the actual election results by the Electoral Commission. He cautioned the
NPP’s Presidential candidate, Nana Addo against conceding defeat
until he gets justice in the law courts.
“If something went wrong in elections, we want to know so we learn from it;
so it is good to get it documented for everybody to
know.”
“In Ghana if something happens and you are not happy or sure
of it, you go to court and the judges determine; I think that every
Ghanaian has a right to make sure that he gets fairness and
justice.”
Mr. Pianim
further stated that it will be good the courts confirm the
numbers of the election results so
that the winner can enjoy his victory without reservation. He also
warned the party leadership to keep the supporters off the street
and use the laid down procedures.
The leadership of the NPP is yet to file a lawsuit against
the Electoral Commission on
electoral fraud in the just ended polls.
