General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpng, has said the recent demonstration organized by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) over the voter register was just to create tension in the country.
He described the protest as needless, mischievous and deceptive.
“It is obvious that recent agitations by the NDC pertaining to the 2024 Provisional Register are needless, deceptive, mischievous, and a deliberate attempt to create tensions in the country,” he said during a press conference in Accra on Thursday, September 19.
The NDC organized the Enough is Enough nationwide demonstration on Tuesday, September 17 to press home their demands for the conduct of the voter register.
“Our demand is simple,” National Chairman of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketia said.
He added “We want the EC to ensure a free, fair, and transparent election and a credible register is central to that goal.
“We want nothing but transparent elections that will guarantee our right to choose our leaders. Without the right of self-determination, democracy is good as gone and every democracy at one point in time, comes under threat Ghana’s democracy is under serious threat now and we want to prevail.
“We shall overcome because every democracy has the risk of producing a tyrant but our ability to fight that tyrant and restore democracy once again is paramount and we shall prevail.”
