A Senior Partner at international Accounting firm KPMG, Joe Winful, has revealed that the company’s staff have not taken part in any inventory taken by the parties involved in the ongoing petition at the Supreme Court.
Representatives of the respondents in the counting of the pink sheet have raised concerns about what they say is the sneaking in of additional boxes containing the evidence at the centre of the election dispute.
However, Mr Winful insists KPMG had no knowledge of any inventory taking, and would have publicly announced any anomalies if any had been detected at the inventory stage.
Joe Winful disclosed this on Adom Tv’s Badwam on Tuesday.
Nevertheless, KPMG is not perturbed by the decision of the respondents in the petition – NDC, President Mahama and the EC – to call for a suspension of the count and report back to the court, and is only waiting for further directions from the court that engaged its services.
According to Abraham Amaliba, a member of the President’s legal team, an inventory of boxes yesterday showed an increase in the number of boxes from the initial number counted last Thursday, raising doubts about the sanctity of the evidence.
The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Kwadwo Owusu Afriyie had in an earlier interview questioned the motives of the respondents in requesting for KPMG to use the copies of the President of the 9 member panel in its audit instead of the copies in the custody of the Registrar.
Nevertheless, the petitioners were confident they had submitted all 11,842 copies of the pink sheet as claimed in their petition, and the NDC and President Mahama’s legal team were only poisoning people’s minds when the audit shows their claim of being shortchanged to be false.
