Deputy General Secretary for the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Koku Anyidoho has accused President Akufo-Addo of being behind the move to kick out the Electoral Commissioner, Madam Charlotte Osei from office.
According to the NDC Deputy Chief Scribe, President Akufo-Addo and his Vice Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia as well as the entire ruling NPP want to manipulate the system to work in their favour in the upcoming District Chief Executive elections in 2019 and the main elections in 2020.
Speaking on Okay FM’s 'Ade Akye Abia' Morning Show, Koku Anyidoho alleged that the NPP want to throw out all the Electoral Commissioners and replace them with their own people; thus, the ruling NPP engineered the petition against the EC Officials.
He explained that the NPP led by Nana Akufo-Addo and Dr. Bawumia prior to the 2016 elections stated their dislike of the EC boss, Madam Charlotte Osei; “lying” that the voter’s register is bloated with foreigners.
“Akufo-Addo and Bawumia passed bad comments about the EC boss and so the impeachment approach started from them; this is very political coming from the top. They want to manipulate the system and that is why they want EC officials out in order to massage the DCE elections in 2019 and the main elections in 2020. Let them attempt and we are watching them,” he alleged.
“Nana Akufo-Addo is interested in getting rid of Charlotte Osei, and in opposition they did not hide their dislike for the EC boss.They are not being fair to the EC Chair. NPP made it manifestly clear that they will get rid of Charlotte Osei and this action shows clearly that they are behind her impeachment,” he claimed.
He allegedly mentioned again that the removal of some state officials is not only happening in Electoral Commission, but also there are moves to remove the head of Bank of Ghana and the Military Service.
“They are not doing this to only EC but to Bank of Ghana and the Military Service. Ken Ofori-Atta has been calling people that he cannot work with them, he wants to be President of Ghana,” Koku Anyidoho alleged.
Meanwhile, the Committee empanelled by Chief Justice Sophia Abena Boafoa Akuffo to probe the allegations of abuse of power and corruption at the Electoral Commission (EC), yesterday met both the petitioners and the respondents.
Both the petitioners and the respondents reported at the scheduled time and each reportedly met the committee, to be chaired by a Supreme Court judge.
The EC workers, who petitioned the president, were represented by two of them with the rest waiting in the wings for the real day for the showdown.
But Koku Anyidoho insisted that President Akufo-Addo is interested in removing Charlotte Osei which is why he accepted the petition against the EC boss, unlike former President Mills who kicked against a petition to remove former Chief Justice Mrs. Georgina Woods.

I think you guys @ Peacefmonline don't have anything to report on other this toke belly.
Koku I have advised you that before you grant interview make sure you are not under presure from natures call - first go and empty your bowels before speaking to the media. You see that because you did not heed my advise you are being mocked and embarrassed?
Why worried about statement made by a weed smoooker. This guy is not normal so peacefmonline should not give him the plateform.
By far the most $tup1d politician in the history of Ghana. Koku is a clear example of why politicians should not be taken seriously. No $ense, no logical reasoning, no direction of thought, empty headed and simply a big fat f00l who should not be given any audience. It's a very regrettable that the so called big opposition in Ghana has this utter buf00n as their deputy general secretary. Ghana and its politics needs better people to positively influence the young and upcoming generation not an 1mbecile like this p1g lookalike Gyemakpla Koku Anyidoho.
Koku cannot be in same class with Dr. Buwmiah, in regard to intelligence, scholarship, work experience, international exposure, you name it. So. the Dr. does not know why he should waste his time responding to g ibberish from Koku.
WHO REMOVED THE CHRAJ BOSS MRS LAMTEY. IF MY MEMORY SERVES ME RIGHT SHE WAS APPOINTED BY NDC AND REMOVED FOR WRONG DEALING WITHIN NDC ERA RIGHT?
KOKU BE SENSIBLE FOR ONCE.
Koku, you must think before you open your mouth , we can't allow the wrong doers in the society, they must go simple as simple ABCD.
Ndc are born fo*ls. You see them and you see the faces of idi*ts, none of them make sense and I can't understand how they got into the party Flt. Lt. Rawlings and his wife formed, No wonder their daughter even feel ashamed to come out as an mp to talk. Nobody knows how they made selection to choose who joins the party,they are all ***barred word***. In any serious party a fo*l like this Anyidoho wouldn't be given any serious position like a deputy secretary. The man has no strategy only gyimie nkoaa and ndc are happy with such people and when you lose you blame IT and apathy what jokers in a concert party. Look at how they are misbehaving towards what the constitution says,like Charlotte Osei is an ndc women's organizer and who in his right sense will put there another party's women's organizer to do the bidding of the ndc, it will be a suicidal if the recommendation from the judiciary is not implemented but left like that. What interest does the ndc have I the electoral commission to behave the way they are doing? Ghanaians spoke last elections and threw away ndc like dirty water so how and what do you think will help you to come back since Charlotte Osei has no magic wand to use against Ghanaians who hate ndc and doesn't want them on their presidency. Ndc must note 1.5 million difference is under their a$$es to clear before they can make a pact of winning and if in power you were humiliated like this what shows in opposition the 54% will rescind their decision to let the 44% get the 50+1 to win. Ndc I'm reminding you lost in double digits so you must stop fo*ling around and find ways to minimize that lose, because this your folly won't help you. If it were NPP they wouldn't have time for all these ***barred word*** but rather would be putting heads together home and abroad to find solution but look at the idi*ts roaming about from rdio station to radio station with us*less divisive and disunity walks and hiring Appiah stadium to make stup*d utterances to cause more disaffection and unattractive to their party. What bunch of idi*ts they cll themselves politicians in Ghana. Agyimifuo nkoaa ne nkw*sea akeka
THE NDC WILL NEVER LEARN!
