Former Deputy General Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Koku Anyidoho has expressed his disappointment in John Dramani Mahama over his refusal to file his nomination forms by himself.
According to him, it is a total disrespect for the electioneering processes in the country and must not be tolerated.
“JM has lost a big opportunity to prove that he is serious about winning the election on December 7th. By not going to present his documents personally to the EC, he has grossly disrespected the electoral process of Ghana,” he said in a tweet.
Johnson Asiedu Nketia in the company of other leading members of the NDC submitted John Dramani Mahama’s forms to the Electoral Commission on Monday, September 9.
The NDC flagbearer was in the Bono Region campaigning when the filing of the nomination was taking place in Accra.
He has, in a post shared via social media, raised concerns about the work of the Electoral Commission, calling on them not to ignore calls for a forensic audit of the voters register.

I agree with Nana Chiraahene, Barima Mintah Afari II that the sanctity of the December election must not be sacrificed—the Electoral Commission has the responsibility to guarantee that sanctity.
Our repeated calls on Jean Mensah and the Commission to ensure fairness and free elections continue to be rebuffed, but as Nana Chiraahene stated, the Commission must be careful to avoid plunging this country into chaos due to its avoidable mistakes and actions.
The call for a forensic audit of the voter register is not a demand of the NDC alone. It is a legitimate demand from all peace-loving Ghanaians who desire a free, fair, and peaceful election on December 7. The demand for the audit must and should unite us all in our quest for electoral integrity.
