Two executives of the National Elections Commission (NEC) over the weekend trashed allegations of fraud and irregularities against the commission in their respective testimonies, saying that the collaborating claims the Unity Party (UP) and Liberty Party (LP) made show their lack of appreciation for the endeavors the NEC made to conduct free, fair and transparent elections amid national challenges. “What I can say is that there is only one FRR, and it is the one from the NEC. “The ballots found were only used for civic voter education purpose rather than being official voting ballots.”The chief hearing officer of NEC, Cllr. NEC director of political affairs, Joseph Yarsiah, said UP, LP and their partners are not being fair to the country. He, meanwhile, demonstrated in videos some of the difficult circumstances under which the NEC conducted the elections.
