The National Democratic Congress has disclosed 35 questions it posed to the Electoral Commission (EC) at the last Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC) meeting on Tuesday, April 9.

According to the General Secretary of the party, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, these questions, if answered, would aid in investigation and prosecution and also prevent recurrence of Biometric Verification Registration devices and laptops ahead of the December 7 presidential and parliamentary election.

Speaking at the latest NDC Moment of Truth series on April 15, he demanded a thorough, unbiased, independent investigation of this theft, including an independent audit of the IT system of the Electoral Commission of Ghana.
