The New Patriotic Party\u2019s (NPP) \u00a0presidential candidate for the 2012 elections, Nana Akufo-Addo has reiterated his belief that the party was cheated during the 2012 elections.<\/p>\n

Speaking at an event in Kumasi to mark the first anniversary of the election petition verdict,\u00a0 Nana Addo said \u00a0\u201cit is painful to lose an election, but the pain shouldn’t be as a result of being cheated during the process.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNever again should anybody tamper with results in an election,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n

The NPP challenged the results of the 2012 presidential\u00a0 elections, claiming that it was rigged in favor of incumbent, President Mahama.<\/p>\n

The nine-member panel of judges who presided over the hearing of the election petition, however, declared President Mahama as the legitimately elected president.<\/p>\n

Addressing supporters in Kumasi, Nana Addo said the party will approach the next elections with the experience from the August 29, 2013 verdict on the election petition.<\/p>\n

He called on Ghanaians to force the Electoral Commission to implement the recommendations of the Supreme Court ahead of the 2016 elections.<\/p>\n

\u201cGhanaians deserve and demand a reliable electoral system,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

Nana Addo also promised to bring the NPP back into power\u00a0 and move Ghana into prosperity.<\/p>\n
