According to her, audited reports, as well as the cost of elections will be published in order to ensure transparency.

She additionally said the EC will publish “an annual statement, showing the implementation of the recommendations” as required in its reports.

Never again should the Electoral Commission of Ghana operate without systems and policies to guide our financial operations.

Never again should there be an abuse of the taxpayers’ funds and never again should the Commission flout procurement rules to the detriment of the public purse,” she added.
