The Electoral Commission of Ghana (EC) has denied news making rounds that one of its officials have been arrested in Somanya in the Eastern Region.
In a statement, the election management body described as “fake news” reports on social media that the said official was arrested for “for reducing the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Candidate’s votes by 3,000.”
Below is the full EC statement on Monday:
The attention of the Electoral Commission has been drawn to social media reports alleging that an EC Official has been arrested in Somanya within the Eastern Region in Ghana.
The fake news further goes ahead to claim that the said EC Official was arrested for reducing the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Candidate’s votes by 3,000.
We wish to state that this is FALSE. The public is therefore urged to disregard this fake news.
