NPP polls: We’ll deal with persons who flout rules, says Nimako

Police personnel were deployed to the NPP office in the Manhyia North Constituency after party members clashed with executives over nomination forms

Evans Nimako, the director of research and elections for the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) has warned that leadership will deal with members who act contrary to the directives of the party in the election of polling station executives across the country.

Police personnel were deployed to the NPP office in the Manhyia North Constituency after party members clashed with executives over nomination forms.

The chaos erupted after the chairman of the election committee announced that the nomination forms would be on sale for new applicants vying for various positions at the polling station levels.

Nimako called for strict compliance to the party’s rules governing such elections in conversation with Kwaku Nhyira-Addo on The Asaase Breakfast Show.

“The mandate given to the polling stations and electoral area coordinators committee must be conducted in a manner as given in the rules and regulations for the conduct of these elections.

“We expect nothing more, nothing else than strict compliance to the directives given. All those who in one way or the other giving a certain posture that is not in consonance with the party’s rules and regulation will be taken off,” Nimako said on Monday (21 February).

He added: “In the wisdom of the National Council, the composition of these committees is headed by a regional executive committee rep, this cannot be no other person but somebody who understands the rules of the party, the conduct of the party… and rules and regulation.”

Nimako further urged those who have concerns to channel their grievances to the appropriate quarters for redress.
