Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensa, has praised the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) for rejoining the Inter-Party Advisory Committee (IPAC), describing it as beneficial.
The NDC had boycotted IPAC meetings since 2021 following the review of the 2020 parliamentary and presidential elections.
Speaking to journalists in Accra, the EC’s chairperson noted that the NDC has made significant suggestions since returning to IPAC.
“It is of great benefit to all of us that they [NDC] have returned to IPAC. The discussions have been very constructive, and we have received valuable feedback from the NDC and other parties,” she said.
“We have considered their inputs and integrated them into our processes. For the recent voter registration exercise, the feedback from the NDC was particularly valuable.”
The leadership of the NDC cited perceived biases of the EC as their reason for initially rejecting IPAC invitations.
The NDC eventually announced its return to IPAC in December 2023.
