Confusion broke out at the Electoral Commission Ashanti regional office after NPP refused to accept the parliamentary ballot papers sent there.
NPP regional chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako who led the challenge said the ballot did not have NPP initials printed on it as the other parties have.
He said apart from the logo printed on the ballot paper, there is no indication of the party to which the logo belongs.
The ballots for the region arrived in Kumasi last night and the representatives of the various parties gathered to assess them Monday morning.
Luv FM's Erastus Asare Donkor reported that all the political parties have their initials printed under their logo on the ballot paper except the NPP.
A close look at the ballot paper, however, reveals 'New Patriotic Party' which forms part of the party's logo, on the printout.
More soon...

'An ***barred word*** demonstrates its intention of biting you if it shows its bare teeth to you'. This adage is true of the relationship between the EC and the NPP. The EC has shown times without number that it is not a friend of the NPP. A Soft copy of the voters' register given the NPP contains corrupted files and now notice of polls show that all other parties have their initials but NPP. NPP, please, open your eyes in the forthcoming elections because your enemy is roaring like a wounded tiger.
EC HAS AGENDA TO RIG FOR NDC. NDC KNOWS HOW TO USE TAX PAYERS MONEY TO INFLUENCE THE MINDS OF JOURNALISTS, EC OFFICIALS AND POLLING AGENTS TO RIG THE ELECTION. IF THE OFFICIALS OF EC ARE FAIR, THIS ANOMALY COULD HAVE BEEN CORRECTED BEFORE PRINTING. IT IS DELIBERATE ATTEMPT BY EC TO HIDE NPP FROM THE LOGO. NPP SHOULD WATCH CAREFULLY THE PRINTING OF BALLOT PAPERS, THE PRINTING OF PINK SHEETS TO PREVENT EC FROM PRINTING DOUBLE BALLOT PAPERS AND DOUBLE PINK SHEETS. EC OFFICIALS CONSCIENCES HAVE BEEN BOUGHT BY NDC
why blame the Ec? what Logo did the NPP present, u guys should not be happy with Wontumi cos his actions is even an insult to the National executive who represented them in Accra, especially when the papers were inspected by the party reps in accra before dispatch to Kumasi
NPP has no case. You presented the logo to EC. They submitted you samples for review before the print out. Your party officials were there to supervise the printing. If Wontumi has an issue he should forward to the party headquarters.
The EC building should be burnt down without hesitation. That ***barred word*** and incompetent Charlotte Osei and her staff are ***barred word***. The whole world is reading their ***barred word*** statement. Are they saying they could not print a sample copy for an approval by the parties before the final printing of the ballot papers. This clearly shows how incompetent the EC is. ***barred word***!
EC must admit its mistakes, and correct them. It is NOT the responsibility of NPP to correct the work of EC. Is this the first time EC is printing NPP logo on ballot papers?
So don't we have proof readers in Ghana to check minor errors before they become major faults when final works are printed? Look at the Independence brochures! Neither NPP nor any other party should accept any elementary mistake from the EC quarters even if it will cost the nation to re-print the right one. If visuals are going undetected, how much are we sure that figures and numbers will go faultless? If our National institutions are making such mistakes how about our JSS students?.... Indeed if gold should rust what will poor iron do?

NPP supporters, where did the EC get the picture of your parliamentary candidate and logo from? Id.iots, what you submit is what get printed. Kurasifuo!
The rigging has started. This is one of the 30 rigging "ways and means" by the NDC and EC. Mahama Twaso!
