The General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Aseidu Nketia has described the impeachment process procedure against charlotte Osei as a big test case for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) administration.
According to him, such issues of removing or impeaching a chief justice or an electoral commissioner which ceased in the country has been resurrected by the Akufo Addo led NPP government.
"This government should be able to show us their worth in the political arena and this a clear test case for them", he added
A prima facie case was established against the Electoral Commission Chairperson, Charlotte Osei, following allegations of corruption and abuse of office levelled against her in two separate petitions.
Charlotte Osei’s two deputies, Amadu Sulley (in charge of Operations), and Georgina Amankwa (in charge of Corporate Services, also have a case to answer for their alleged roles in the disappearance of some Ghc480, 000 from the Electoral Commission (EC)’s Endowment Fund, among other allegations.
The three top EC officials on Monday, appeared individually before the Chief Justice in the company of their lawyers, at the office of the Judicial Service located at the Supreme Court.
In an interview on Okay fm's Ade Akye Abia Programme, Johnson Aseidu Nketia, General Secretary for the NDC noted that the end results of the case will determine Ghana’s level of democracy.
According to him, "the results will either affirm or refute corruption allegations leveled by the petitioners".

I just dont know what makes the npp leadership so co.wardly.Is it too much schooling or they just lack the balls for African politics?.Today the ndc lo;o.ting brigade are walking free after loo.ti;ng state coffers dry,talking no.ns.ense all over the media.Ndc agents now dictating and running the show in gh when they should be running helter-skelter for their massive thie.ve.ry and cor.ruption.The npp are more democratic and booklong than even the originators of democracy.Its a shame.After one year of npp's weakness and no action,ndc crooks have become emboldened and started emerging from under the rock to taunt and rob their lo;o.t in our face.Individuals who have st.o.len,embezz.led and mis.managed BILLIONS OF DOLLARS OF PUBLIC MONEY turn around to bastardize/sabotage polices like the FREE SHS benefiting the Ghanaian poor.Special prosecutor this ,special prosecutor that:Maybe its a case of scratch my back I scratch yours.Nana Addo has now proven THAT THERE ARE NO TRUE LEADERS IN GHANA.NKRUMAH WAS THE ONE AND ONLY TRUE LEADER GHANA EVER HAD AND WILL REMAIN SO TILL KINGDOM COME.
So NDc also resurrected impeachment of CHAJ bosses? When this man speaks, it make me remember the old adage that 'wisdom is not by how old you are'
NDC and CORRUPTION! NDc will 'SHIELD' every corrupt official. You wait, the SP is coming!
It is a test case for Ghana's legal institutions, not NPP. You people should stop your commentaries and let the law take its course. You people are just confusing Ghanaians and deepening the division in the country.
WAS THE REMOVAL OF THE CHRAJ BOSS A TEST CASE FOR THE NDC? CAN'T UNDERSTAND THESE PEOPLE
HAHAHA THIS MAN IS FUNNY.THIS IS A SIMPLE CASE FOR NPP.THEY WILL ALL GO HOME.NDC'S LAST HOPE FOR 2020 CHARLOTTE OSEI WILL BE SACKED.
IT IS HARD TO UNDERSTAND THE THINKING AND REASONING CAPACITY OF ASIEDU NKETIA AND HIS NDC. WHAT DO THEY EXPECT THE NPP GOVERNMENT TO DO WHEN THREE TOP OFFICIALS OF EC THEMSELVES HAVE LEVELLED CASES OF CORRUPTION AND IMPROPRIETY AGAINST THEMSELVES AND DEMANDED FOR THE IMPEACHMENT OF ONE ANOTHER. THIS IS EVEN GRAVE WHEN ALL THE THREE FIGHTING OFFICIALS WERE APPOINTED BY THE NDC GOVERNMENT. THE REMOVAL OF ANY OF THE THREE OFFICIAL BY POLITICAL MECHANIZATION WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DIFFICULT. FOR ME IT IS ONLY HAPPENING THEM LIKE IT HAPPENED TO MOGABE AND HIS WIFE GRACE BECAUSE GOD OF JUSTICE AND TRUTHFULNESS INTENDS IT. ALL THIS IS HAPPENING BECAUSE ONCE GOD UNTIES NO ONE CAN TIE.
Test case he said? The NPP govt will pass the 'test'. Charlotte Osei, Amadu Sule, Georgina Amankwaa will go if they are found to have broken the law. That is how Ghanaians will know this gov't is serious about fighting corruption.
Lack of knowledge and wisdom will kill u soon
Asiedu who is testing who in this case? Ghanaian's are testing those you appointed and wanted to steal the elections for your party. Every ordinary Ghanaian knows the outcome of this issue and our wish is that they are prosecuted and put behind Bar for their corrupt activities. PPP can testify to that
