The Electoral Commission has dismissed allegations by IMANI President, Franklin Cudjoe, claiming that the Commission intentionally disenfranchised the people of Santrokofi, Apkafu, Lolobi, and Lipke (SALL).

It will be recalled that on December 6, 2020, just a day before the general election, the EC directed that residents in the SALL areas could only vote in the presidential election.

Since then, the constituents have been without representation in Parliament.

However, Deputy Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Dr. Bossman Asare, stated that the Commission cannot be blamed for what happened.

"If you want someone to blame for that process, [it should be] the parliament. The time the Parliament began the process of creating the LI that created Guan, they should have known that it wasn't possible that a constituency would be created for them to vote in the Parliamentary election."

He said this in a yet-to-be-aired edition of PM Express on JoyNews.

"Clearly, anyone who blames the EC for what happened in the Guan - for them not electing a member of Parliament - the person doesn't understand the processes of Parliament," he added.
