A member of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) communications team, Sammy Gyamfi has warned the Akufo-Addo led government against removing Madam Charlotte Osei from office.

A five-member committee has been set up by Chief Justice Sophia Akuffo, to investigate the alleged acts of corruption involving the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission and her two Deputies, Amadu Sulley (in charge of Operations) and Georgina Amankwa (in charge of Corporate Services).

It would be recalled that the EC Commissioners came under intense criticisms after some staff of the EC petitioned President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo in July 2017, to remove Mrs. Osei from office over allegations of fraud and financial malfeasance as well as abuse of office.

Mrs. Osei also responded by making allegations of corruption against her deputies, claiming that she was only being hounded because she sought to introduce systems to curb misuse and mismanagement of resources.

Contributing to a panel discussion on UTV’s "Adekye Nsroma", Wednesday, the NDC communicator said they will resist any attempt to remove the chairperson from her position.

 “…the ruling government should not dare remove Charlotte Osei from her position,” he warned.
