General News of Tuesday, 10 February 2026Source: www.ghanaweb.comLegal practitioner and activist, Oliver Barker-Vormawor, has praised the General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, for what he described as decisive and principled leadership in addressing allegations of vote buying within the party. “That is what leadership from a General Secretary should look like,” he stated, applauding the NDC scribe for taking a firm position on the issue rather than shielding alleged offenders. NDC sets up committee to probe alleged vote-buying in Ayawaso East primariesBarker-Vormawor further challenged the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) to demonstrate similar resolve by sanctioning individuals who allegedly engaged in vote buying during its most recent presidential flagbearer elections. “I challenge the NPP to also disqualify those who bought votes in their last presidential flagbearer elections,” he said. His comments come amid heightened public scrutiny of internal party democracy and the enforcement of rules against vote buying, an issue that has long undermined confidence in Ghana’s electoral processes.
