Legal Affairs Director of the largest opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Baba Jamal could not find better words to describe the just ended December 7 presidential polls which saw the re-election of President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo.
In an interview with NEAT FM’s morning show 'Ghana Montie', the former lawmaker maintained that the election many described as ‘peaceful’ and ‘fair’ was far from accurate.
“In summary, I will say the election was shameful, disgraceful, unfortunate, and embarrassing,” he told host Kwesi Aboagye.
The NDC is still challenging the fairness of the presidential election after claiming some rigging took place in many constituencies to favor the incumbent with the help of the media.
Their flagbearer, Mr. John Dramani Mahama is yet to seek the court to challenge the validity of the results.
“If a whole electoral Commissioner can not do a simple calculation, then there is a problem,” Baba Jamal opined.

Mr Who? I thought you also won a seat in Akwatia. If that were true then you are telling us that your winning is also fraud. You should give up the seat. But I know you have no shame, so you will hold on to your seat and telling the whole world that NPP stole the elections. SHAME. But you do not know what shame is .
Watch the people Baba Jamal Inusah Fuseini Haruna Iddrisu John Mahama These are supposed to be educated people. But all their outbursts have been violence. So will you blame the Zongo youth who have not had the benefit of education when they are hired to embark on destruction and mayhem?
ELECTION RESULTS CHANGES IS NOT STRANGE. SINCE ELECTION IN US ON NOVEMBER 3 THE LECTION RESULT FIGURES KEEP CHAMGING BUT THE IMPACT HAS REMAINED THE SAME. JOE BIDEN IS THE WINNER. TRUMP PAID 3 MILLION DOLLARS FOR RECOUNT IN WISCONSIM. AT THE END OF THE RECOUNT JOE BIDEN GAINED 87 MORE VOTES AT THE EXPENSE OF TRUMP WHO DEMANDED FOR RECOUNT AND PAID THE 3 MILLION DOLLARS. FIGURES CHANGED BUT IMPACT IS STILL THE SAME. IN THE RECOUNT FOR GEORGIA VOTES BIDEN GAIN 1758 VOTES AND TRUMP GAIN 3032. WHEN ADDED TO THE INITIAL RESULTS BIDEN IS STILL THE WINNER IN THAT STATE. THE POPULAR VOTES, AFTER A DAY OF THE ELECTION WHEN BIDEN WAS ACKNOWLEGED ELECTED PRESIDENTALSO KEEP GROWING. ON NOVEMBER 4, 2020 BIDEN HAS 74 MILLION AND TRUMP HAD 70 MILLION. NOW BIDEN POPULAR VOTES IS 81 MILLION AND TRUMP IS 74 MILLIOM. ELECTION RESULTS ARE DECLARED AT A POINT WHERE ANY ADDITION NOR SUBTRACTION MAY NOT AFFECT THE POSITION OF WINNER NOR THE LOOSER. SOME MISTAKES CAN BE DETECTED FOR CORRECTION BUT THE IMPACT OF THE RESULT IS NOT CHANGED. IT IS SHAMEFUL THAT MAHAMA AND PEOPLE AROUND HIM DO NOT UNDERSTAND THIS SIMPLE DYNAMICS OF ELECTIONS TO DEMONSTRATE THEIR ANTI DEMOSCRATIC CHARACTER. IT IS TIME THEY STOP WASTING PEOPLE TIME AND LIFE IN PRESS CONFERENCES AND DEMONSTRATION OVER A FOREGONE ELECTIONS. THEY DID THE SAME BEFORE REGISTRATION OF VOTERS AND ENDED UP IN SUPREME COURT. IT DID NOT WORK FOR THEM AND IT SHALL NOT WORK FOR THEM IN ANY TIME. IT RATHER PORTRAYS THEIR PARTY AS IRRATIONAL, DISODERED AND VIOENT.
As for the Presidential results, please give us a break. Have you forgotten people voted “skirt and blouse “. As Eric Opoku MP for Asunafo South whether he would have allowed rigging under his very eyes. Please N D C Members concentrate on the parliamentary results where you suspected rigging.
Very interesting!!!! Assuming your comment is fair and valid. How different will that be compared to 2012. Now you are crying. Otwea!!
