Communication team member of the New Patriotic Party, Lady Vera Wiredu, says bringing corruption to an end will cause the National Democratic Congress to stay in opposition forever.
Speaking in an interview with Kwaku Dawuro, on Movement In The Morning, on Movement TV/Wontumi radio, Lady Vera was firmly of the view that the NDC will remain in opposition if corruption in voting is curbed.
She said ”The truth of the matter is that when you take corruption away, voting corruption for that matter, NDC will stay in opposition till the second coming of the Lord to take us to Paradise. Some of the ways we can curb corruption are what my brother mentioned, previously we used to put votes in wooden boxes so before the NDCs bring them, they would have cheated by reducing the number of votes in them, and NPP was able to push to change the box from wood to plastic making it transparent enough for everyone to see the content in it.
Now you know the previous ID card with no picture which enabled us to vote, was what they were manipulating by voting multiple times with it. I know of one constituency where it was alleged the NDCs intimidated the NPPs and could vote countless times with the same ID cards., so it is the NPPs that pushed for a picture.”
