The National Democratic Congress, NDC, says it will declare all forms that are sold through unauthorised means null and void. The party also threatens to cancel elections in branches that will not comply with its electoral regulations.
This is contained in a statement signed by its General Secretary, Johnson Asiedu-Nketia and copied to the GNA.
The party said it has taken notice of some malpractices and irregularities in the on-going branch elections and cautioned members against them.
It said the Secretariat has observed that the malpractices and irregularities are threatening to discredit the beauty and effectiveness of the processes, especially in the Southern Zone in the Central, Greater Accra, Oti and Volta Regions.
These include the non-payment of dues and filing fees through the established payment platforms and defying directives from the regional and national teams deployed for the monitoring of the elections.
The statement reminds party members and executives at both Regional and constituency levels that it is mandatory for party dues and filing fees to be paid through the appropriate means. It is only the entry of the payment code generated from such payments that validates the nomination form.
The statement advised constituency executives not to do anything in contravention of party’s election directives.
