"EC’s GHC50,000 Filing Fee Contributed To Our Defeat" – Ivor Greenstreet

ivor-greenstreetIvor Kobina Greenstreet, CPP’s presidential candidate in the just ended December polls has in an interview with Ghana Web thrown lights on the reason behind the party’s lost in the 7th December polls.
According to him, the filing fee the EC charged was way too much and it adversely affected the party since enough was not left for campaigns and other paramount stuff.
“What I would say unbalanced us a bit was the filing fees that we eventually had to pay to the EC.
You may remember that in 2012 the filing fees for the parliamentary candidates was a GHC 1,000 so we were expecting an increase to perhaps a GHC 1,500 or GHC 2,000 – a hundred percent increase or thereabout.
Unfortunately it was increased by a thousand percent to GHC10,000 so that certainly unbalanced us and created some problems with our logistics and approach.”
