The Head of Communications at the EC Eric Dzakpasu said the ruling only shows  that laws can be interpreted in various ways by different people.

In an interview with Accra-based Class, FM Dzakpasu said the credibility of the EC does not even come into question in this instance.

“This is not an issue of credibility; we are talking about the law. All that we do in the EC has got to do with the law - our understanding, our interpretation of the law, and how we implement the law. And it is because we can have varied interpretation or understanding of the law.”

“So, when we go to court with an issue and the judge in his wisdom gives a position, as a law-abiding institution, we study it, factor it into our programmes and processes and move forward because election is a collective business,” he added.

Moments after the ruling by an Accra High Court asking the EC to allow Dr Nduom correct the anomalies in his form, some people argued that this ruling has put the credibility in doubt.

Considering that the general election is a few weeks away, this has raised doubts over other happenings before and during the elections.

But Dzakpasu believes this ruling has rather made the EC more credible.

“It’s a question of interpretation of the law and the extent to which we understand and abide by the law as stated by the judges. It has nothing to do with credibility.”
