Joseph Yamin, the National Organizer for Ghana’s opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has issued a bold statement regarding the upcoming elections, directly challenging the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) that any plot to rig this year’s election will be exposed.
Speaking on AbusuaNkommo at ABUSUA965FM with Kojo Marfo, Yamin asserted that claims of NPP’s advanced hacking capabilities are unfounded, stating, “If they think they have sophisticated means to hack the system, tell them I say they are lying”.
Yamin emphasized that the NDC has already implemented robust systems to ensure a fair electoral process, drawing on historical experiences to bolster his argument.
He recalled his arrest prior to the December 2008 elections, stating, โwhen they arrested me, we had already set up our systems at that time. This time around, weโve already set up our plan.โ His message was clear: intimidation tactics will not deter the NDC from executing its strategy.
Yamin did not hold back in his predictions regarding the NPP’s electoral processes. He further warned that the NPP would not be able to collate results before 8 PM on election day, predicting that their systems would face failures.
“I want to tell my NDC members that there’s no way the NPP will collate their results before 8 pm. It’s a lie; it won’t work. I’m telling you, the NPP will claim their system has jammed, but we have more intelligent people in IT than they do”, he stated.
Yammin added “Maybe they had an advantage in 2020, but that shouldn’t give them confidence they’ll have an advantage in 2024. I’m telling them that anything they plan will fail”.
