Ruby Bediako Speaks Out on Missing Vote Concerns in Recent Elections
Ruby Bediako, the wife of Nana Kwame Bediako, leader of The New Force Movement, has responded to the concerns surrounding her husband’s low vote count in the recent general elections. There were unverified reports suggesting that Nana Kwame Bediako only secured a single vote at a polling station where he and his family were voting. Addressing the issue, Ruby Bediako expressed her heartbreak and frustration, questioning the reliability of the system. “I think it was the whole family that went. I’m heartbroken because I think the system failed us, because where’s my vote? I don’t know where my vote went,” she lamented.
Ruby Bediako’s statement highlights a broader issue affecting many voters in Ghana who felt that irregularities in the electoral process had rendered their votes invalid. While she did not directly confirm that she didn’t vote for her husband, her comments reflect a growing concern over the integrity of the electoral system. Despite this setback, Ruby Bediako found solace in the fact that the election process overall remained peaceful. She noted that while the system failed her and her family, other citizens faced similar challenges, reinforcing a need for greater accountability and transparency within the Electoral Commission.
In her address, Ruby Bediako urged Ghanaians to support President-elect John Mahama as he begins his term, stressing the importance of national unity and stability in moving forward. She emphasized the need for the government to address these electoral concerns promptly to build public confidence. The call to support President Mahama was not only a plea for cooperation but also a recognition of the importance of continuity in governance as Ghana looks to implement the developmental projects promised during his campaign. Ruby Bediako’s comments serve as a reminder of the significant role that transparency plays in the democratic process and the challenges that remain in ensuring fair elections for all Ghanaians.
