No presidential aspirant was disqualified based on personal reasons

Dr Bossman Eric Asare, Deputy Chairman of the EC in-charge of Corporate Services

The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has categorically stated that no presidential aspirant has been disqualified from the upcoming elections based on personal reasons.

The Commission clarified that the disqualification process was conducted through a thorough and rigorous process, emphasising that it did not aim to target any specific aspirant.

This statement comes amid widespread speculation and allegations that some candidates faced disqualification because the Commission is automatically biased against some of the aspirants.

Speaking on JoyNews' Newsfile programme on Saturday, September 28, Dr Bossman Asare, the Deputy Commissioner in charge of Corporate Affairs, stated that all disqualifications were in strict adherence to established legal and constitutional guidelines.
