The duo’s unlawful entry was in an attempt to post the NDC’s petition after the group staged a three-hour demonstration through the principal streets demanding a change in the verdict of the December 7 polls results. According to Ghanaweb.com, contrary to an agreement that a designated number of party leaders would present their petition to the EC officials, the two men got to the premises only to meet a locked gate because the EC officials were on break. The unlawful entry was completely separate from the slaughtering of ram at the main gate of the EC’s Ho office, with the blood sprinkled across the gate and in a circular direction targeted at invoking certain spiritual action against the EC. A video of the incident has been circulating online. He said that the Police Command received notification from the NDC about the demonstration and had given permission but with a condition that only five party executives would be allowed into the premises of the EC to present their petition.
