The Director of Communications for the Convention People’s Party (CPP), Nii Armah Akomfrah has chastised both the ruling NDC and the opposition NPP for attempts at rationalizing the violence associated with the ongoing biometric registration exercise.According to him, officials of both parties have no justification for the violence.Some supporters of both the National Democratic Congress and the New Patriotic Party have been accused of perpetrating violence at some of the registration centers across the country.The latest incident involves an attack on two senior officials of the NPP at Odododiodio on Wednesday.But in an interview with Joy News Television, Nii Armah Akomfrah said the Electoral Commission cannot be blamed for the violence and called on the leadership of the two parties to call their members and activists to order.He called on the Electoral Commission to ignore calls by the NDC in the Odododiodoo constituency for the closure of the registration centres at non-residential areas especially in the central business districts as their closure will amount to disenfranchising some innocent electorates.He alleged both parties are guilty of the charges they are leveling against each other because they are beneficiaries of the commotion.The CPP Communication Director however supported calls for the organization of the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting to address the situation before it gets out of hand.He advised both parties to rather join forces to promote peace amongst the electorates to ensure peaceful elections in December.
