The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Deputy Director of Elections, Rashid Tanko-Computer, says the party will investigate allegations of vote-buying in its ongoing internal elections if evidence is presented to the national executives.<\/p>\n
Speaking on Channel One Newsroom, Mr Tanko-Computer said the party would not tolerate practices that undermine its internal electoral processes.<\/p>\n
\u201cIf somebody has any evidence of that and it\u2019s brought to the notice of the national executives, why not? We\u2019ll take notice of it,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He cited the party\u2019s response to a previous case involving Ayawaso as evidence of its willingness to address such allegations.<\/p>\n
Mr Tanko-Computer, however, said the party had not observed any incidents of vote-buying in areas where the elections had been conducted, describing the exercise as largely peaceful and successful.<\/p>\n
He acknowledged challenges in some constituencies, including Odododiodioo, where counting was halted following violence before resuming after party officials intervened.<\/p>\n
He also disclosed that elections in some constituencies in the Ashanti and Eastern regions had been postponed until the following day to allow the party to resolve outstanding issues.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
