Cape Coast North NDC supporters besiege EC office; demand release of parliamentary aspirant's voter ID

Audio By Carbonatix

The NDC Parliamentary Candidate for the Cape Coast North Constituency, Dr Kwamena Mintah Nyarku, with some supporters of the party have besieged the regional office of the Electoral Commission.

The group, numbering about 50, is demanding that Dr Nyarku is given his voter ID card.

This follows the refusal of the regional office to hand over his card despite a ruling by an Accra High court on Tuesday.

Dr Nyarku who had reported for his card was left disappointed after he was told that the EC Head Office in Accra, is yet to issue an order for its release.

In a video sighted by JoyNews, a member of the group is seen cursing both the regional and national representatives of the EC.

He is also heard issuing an ultimatum to the Commission while expressing worry that failure to meet the deadline will mean Dr Nyarku cannot represent the NDC in the December polls.
