Disqualified presidential nominee of the All People’s Congress Hassan Ayariga says President Mahama’s biggest mistake is the appointment of Charlotte Osei as chairperson of the Electoral Commission.

“What did Charlotte Osei do when she was head of the NCCE? She failed in everything she did there, and now she has been appointed chairperson of Electoral Commission; and she has the guts to disqualify me for what she failed to educate us on."

“In fact, Mr President, I look you in the face and tell you that her appointment is the worst mistake so far,” Ayariga fumed at the press conference.

The EC disqualified Ayariga for the second time after he filed his nominations again because he did not meet the standard. But Ayariga accused the EC chair of targeting him unfairly.

He said that was the reason Mrs Osei claimed that “Hassan Ayariga will not win the elections” during an address in the UK.

Even though he hinted of a possible court action earlier he said he would not want frustrate the election process which has already been beleaguered with a number of court cases.

Ayariga was part of seven presidential hopefuls who were disqualified by the Electoral Commission again after the Supreme Court had ordered that some 13 disqualified presidential candidates be given the opportunity to correct the errors on their nomination forms.
