The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has cautioned its members against violating guidelines governing its internal elections, warning that sanctions will be applied to offenders.
The directive follows the approval of rules to regulate the party’s internal electoral processes ahead of upcoming contests.
The party’s Deputy General Secretary, Mustapha Gbande, said members must adhere strictly to the established timelines and procedures.
“It is good for people to want to run various positions in the party. But, in accordance with the party’s timelines, we must watch and read the calendar so that, within the season, if you are running for a branch election, then obviously you would be campaigning for that position within the context of the timetable that the party has put out,” he said.
“And so if you do anything contrary to that, then you get yourself in a position where the party would then have to take certain decisions to ensure that members conform with the rules and procedures of the party,” he added.
The caution underscores efforts by the party leadership to ensure discipline and fairness in its internal electoral processes as it prepares for key organisational activities.
