Media personality Bridget Otoo has voiced her concerns regarding the Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana following the announcement to reschedule the special voting exercise for the Eastern and Western regions to December 5, 2024. In a passionate post on social media, Otoo expressed her frustration with the EC’s handling of the situation and urged citizens to direct their anger towards the upcoming elections.
She emphasized the need for a change in leadership within the EC, particularly under a potential Mahama administration. Otoo stated, “Special voting rescheduled to December 5, wow! Please use all your anger to vote against this government! We need to clean the EC!”
In her remarks, she also criticized the current New Patriotic Party (NPP) government, accusing it of institutionalizing corruption and undermining state institutions. Her comments reflect growing public dissatisfaction with the government’s performance and the integrity of electoral processes.
As the special voting exercise involves a significant number of security personnel, journalists, and electoral officials across 14 regions, Otoo’s call for reform highlights the pressing need for accountability and transparency in Ghana’s electoral system.
With the elections approaching, her message resonates with many Ghanaians eager for change and reform in the political landscape.
