The National Identification Authority (NIA) has provided assurance that its systems are not designed to favor any specific political party, including the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

The Electoral Commission (EC) has proposed a constitutional amendment that would make the Ghana Card the sole document for confirming nationality and age during voter registration for the 2024 elections. However, this proposal has faced opposition from the minority group in Parliament, who express concerns about potential disenfranchisement of citizens.

Speaking on the Asaase Breakfast Show, Attafuah stated that it would be a significant embarrassment not to utilize the Ghana Card for the upcoming general election.

“Our processes is politically neutral, it cannot benefit a particular party, weather it is National Democratic Congress or New Patriotic Party and NDC has nothing to fear about the Ghana Card and our processes.

“We are not engineering anything to the detriment of NDC and we cannot engineer anything to the benefit of the NPP, we will not do that, we are not designed to do that, the system is technical, its is neutral,” the NIA boss added.
