“It is a disgrace that a woman will be so jealous of her colleague woman trying to travail, that at the end of the day, she connived with men to bring me down.” Janet Nabla of the People’s National Party (PNP) did not mince words in accusing the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission of deliberating disqualifying her from the 2024 presidential race.
In an interview with 3FM Midday news on September 20, the flagbearer posited that her disqualification was unwarranted.
“Jean Mensa is aware that the Ghanaian public is looking for change because they are tired of the males that have not been able to bring any impact in our country. When the Commission realized I was being a threat to their candidate, she and her people sat down to disqualify me from bringing an impact in this year’s elections,” she alleged.
Disgruntled Nabla further accused the Commission of being biased in the execution of their duties.
“The Electoral Commission is one of the organizations that I think the time has come for Ghanaians to come together to campaign and make sure that all those in the body are removed, because these are people who are not just truthful, they are not transparent, and their work is not for Ghanaians. They do things for their whims and caprices,” Madam Nabla asserted.
On Friday, September 20, 2024, the Electoral Commission (EC) declared 13 presidential aspirants out of the 24 aspirants as eligible to contest the 2024 elections.
This was after a thorough review of the aspirant’s nomination forms.
The disqualified aspirants are; Samuel Appiah Danquah, an independent candidate, Janet Nabla, an independent candidate, Desmond Abrefa, an independent candidate, Nana Agyepong Stevens, an independent candidate, Paul Perko, an independent candidate, Bernard Mornah of the PNC, James Kwesi Oppong, an Independent Candidate, Samuel Sarpong Ankrah, an independent candidate, Nii Amu Darko, an independent candidate and Asamoah Siaw of the Progressive People’s Party.
