The opposition New Patriotic Party has raised red flags over the decision by the Electoral Commission (EC) to transmit election results electronically.
GhanaStar.com has gathered that the EC is engaging the services of some IT firms to enable it transmit results electronically during the December polls.
The NPP is, however, accusing the electoral body of sidelining the political parties in the exercise.
The party warns the move could compromise the credibility of the election results if care is not taken.
The party’s Campaign Manager Mac Manu in an interview with Starr News said the action of the commission has no legal backing.
“The amendment of the CI 75 which is currently laid in Parliament, there is no provision or regulation on electronic transmission, so where is the law backing it.
“It is muddy and it is about time that our elections are transparent and open and inclusive, if other people know we don’t know…I rather asked this question at IPAC and I was told that the details would be sent to me, but it’s been about six months now,” Mac Manu said.
