The NPP Member of Parliament for Asokwa Maxwell Kofi Jumah is insisting the ruling NDC has held a clandestine meeting with the Electoral Commission to circumvent the 2012 elections.He first told members of the Tertiary Students Confederacy (TESCON) of the NPP at the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology in Kumasi that the party is suspicious of EC’s participation in the NDC’s gathering when, he claimed, the EC had declined requests to meet all political parties.Mr Kofi Jumah further told host of Joy FM’s “Top Story” Monday that the topics discussed at the 31st August to 4th September meeting were “the loopholes in the biometrics, and also the 251 constituencies [and] how they are going to demarcate those constituencies to favour the NDC.”The NDC and the EC have denied having any clandestine meeting aimed at outmaneuver the other political parties.General Secretary of the NDC Johnson Asiedu Nketiah said the party invited resource persons from the EC for a "training of trainers" at Dodowa on electoral rules and regulations.But Kofi Jumah maintained that the caliber of people that attended the gathering were the top echelons of the party.“Who did they train? The executive members, the functional executive members, what are they talking about? ...please, please don’t sell me this. I am not ready to buy the broken bridge.”He said the EC and the NDC are trying to cover things up, but said they have been “caught with their hands in the jar”.He was sure the meeting was held without the knowledge of the Chairman of EC, Dr Kwadwo Afari Gyan.Meanwhile, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah told Joy FM’s Dzifa Bampoh that the training was not unusual, saying similar one was held before the 2008 elections with the EC.He reiterated that the gathering was official, and challenged the party’s accusers to go to the EC to verify the letter which invited the EC for the training; he also encouraged those interested to invite the EC to do same with their polling agents.“As a political party they (NPP) have their choice; if they think that getting to an election they will spend their time training commandos, preparing for war and training people on ‘all die be die’, that is their choice.”Public Affairs Director at the EC, Christian Owusu-Parry has refuted the allegation against the EC, saying “there is no iota of truth” in what Mr Jumah said.“The allegation has no basis at all. Infact it is unfounded. The EC does not meet any political party or any of its stakeholders secretly. The Commission has also not declined to meet the political parties at IPAC meeting.He said the EC last week sent letters to all the political parties inviting them to attend an IPAC meeting on Friday, October 7.
