The appointment of Ghana’s former Electoral Commission Chairperson, Charlotte Osei, as deputy head of the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) has exposed the Akufo-Addo led-government.
This according to General Secretary of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketia.
Mr Nketia said Charlotte Osei was one of the most competent persons he has ever met despite her dismissal, adding that her recent ECOWAS appointment is prove of her competence that has earned her a job.
According to him, Charlotte Osei’s new job has rather exposed the incompetence of the government, adding that the former EC boss’ removal from office was just a move by the government to spite the NDC in the face since they have refused to give any reason for her removal.
“I still believe that Mrs Osei has conducted the fairest, most transparent election I have ever witnessed. I was not surprised when I heard about her new job. I knew she would deliver as she did here.
“I think Akufo-Addo and his government have been exposed over her appointment. The same person they have rejected has now gotten a top job. If indeed she is incompetent, Akufo-Addo and his men should tell us how she would have managed that job. Clearly, it shows how incompetent the NPP government is and how they deal with issues,” he noted on Okay FM.
Background
ECOWAS has appointed Ghana’s former Electoral Commission Chairperson as deputy head of the sub-regional body’s pre-election mission to Nigeria ahead of the country’s 2019 polls.
The mission is led by Mohammed N’fah Alie Conteh, Chairperson of the Electoral Commission of Sierra Leone and will stay in Nigeria between 1st and 15 November.
The aim of this fact-finding mission is to meet with all the stakeholders involved in the electoral process, including candidates, Media, leaders of political parties, administrative and electoral authorities, and development partners in order to assess the state of preparedness of the upcoming polls.

I still do not see what peacefmonline gains by publicizing anything this buf00n says. Ahbaaa What is competence in this? Read the CJ committee report what does it say? You Asiedu so incompetent that you cant get the logic of how she was sacked go get the report
You said it all, I couldn't have said much.
I like aseidu nketia he is very smart now to all those who disagree with his comments please read between the lines his comments was not meant for you but his uneducated followers. He feeds them with this kr@p and they go to town with it not understanding the real issue listen to their serial callers make this points on radio stations soon
ASIEDU NKETIA MUST SHOW HIMSELF AS MATUREEDD POLITICIAN. CHARLOTTE WAS WRONG FOR WHAT HAPPENED IN GHANA. THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG FOR HIS REMOVAL. DUE PROCESS OF LAW WAS FOLLOWED. WE THANK GOD SHE HAS GOT A SECOND CHANCE. CHARLOTTE AND ALL HER GENUINE ADMIRERS MUST PRAY THAT SHE DOES NOT REPEAT THAT MISTAKE AGAIN. SHE COULD BE INCRIMINATED FOR HER WRONG DECISIONS AND ACTIONS. IF ASIEDU NKETIA HAS ANYTHING GOOD TO OFFER TO HELP CHARLOTTE THEN HE SHOULD ADVICE HER TO COLLABORATE WELL WITH HER COLLEAGUES AND BE TRANSPARENT IN HER DEALINGS. WE ALL WISH HER WELL.
Asiefu Nketia must learn to read and listen more carefully. Charlotte has been given no full time job or office in ECOWAS. She only the deputy head of an ECOWAS delegation to Nigeria to monitor activities before the elections 2019.Dr. AFARI Gyan did the same as a' Ex EC Commissioner
Competence is not enough, one must also be law abiding and incorruptible. Charlotte fail the litmus in both her relationship with President Mahama, the political parties and the procurement process.
In fact, Asiedu Nkatia is a disgrace to the NDC as a General Secretary. His argumentation and analytical thinking are very poor. What I understand by being Competent is your ability to do your assigned job efficiently. You can acquire skill formally by training, learning by doing, and education. It is, indeed, quite different from being corrupt, which is being labile and easily swayed from your responsibility to indulge in dishonest proceedings. This is, I think is a question of integrity and morality which are ethic and acquired informally by our upbringing, culture, and society. Hence, you can be competent in your job and fail for lack of integrity and honesty. Much in the same way as in Law, you might go to jail, though you handled in the best of your ability ethically right; yet legally wrong. To wit, rob Peter to pay Paul
Quasia be nti, Asiedu Nketsiah keeps talking about issues he does not undestand.
