Election 2024: EC Lied Just To Disqualify Us – Yellow Ghana Movement

Leader of the Yellow Ghana movement, Samuel Apea-Danquah, has expressed dissatisfaction with the Electoral Commission’s (EC) decision to disqualify him along with 10 other candidates from contesting in the upcoming December 7 presidential election.

The disqualified presidential candidate told Umaru Sanda Amadu on Eyewitness News on Citi FM that the EC’s decision to bar him and the others was based on lies.

Apea-Danquah explained that he submitted the tax clearance certificate of his running mate via WhatsApp and also in person and yet the EC went ahead to disqualify him from the presidential race, alleging that he failed to submit the certificates.

He described the EC’s decision as disrespectful which he said will be challenged in the court of law.

“The EC lied. I am a very thorough person. We submitted my running mate’s tax clearance certificates. I sent a copy via WhatsApp and delivered a hard copy to the EC myself and it is so embarrassing because it paints us as very unserious people, as though we just decided to vie for the presidency. After all, we have some loose money lying somewhere.

“We delivered hard copies and so I don’t even know where this is coming from and to blatantly lie on national television to embarrass us to that extent, we feel so disrespected.”

Samuel Apea-Danquah was disqualified along with Bernard Mornah of the People’s National Convention (PNC) and Janet Nabla of the People’s National Party (PNP).

The other candidates include Nana Stephens Adjepong, Paul Perkoh, James Kwesi Oppong, John Enyonam Kwakwu Kpikpi, Dr Samuel Sampong Ankrah, Nii Amu Darko, Desmond Abrefah, and Kofi Asamoah Siaw (Progressive People’s Party).
