“Initiation of prosecution in respect of the illegal printing and handling of about one million ballot papers that were intercepted and were destroyed by the police.” The party chairman stressed.
4. Transparent, honest, and public addressing of the missing equipment at the EC’s office, satisfactory to the general public.
Adding that “The Electoral Commission has not been opened to us, we suspect that the equipment is not missing and they have been hidden for a specific agenda.”
