GECOM Chair can face legal troubles

Jun 16, 2020 Letters

Dear Editor,

With reference to the opinionated report of CEO Lowenfield, GECOM has no choice but to use the SORs to declare the outcome of the elections. The CEO’s report is highly biased in favour of APNU led coalition. The chair is under undue pressure to be partial and favour APNU. But she must make a professional decision and reject the CEO’s report. She must use the recount numbers to declare the rightful winner. She gave a legal undertaking to the court that she would conduct a recount and use it to declare the results to replace the Mingo fraud. She and Mingo would now be in contempt of court if she fails to honour that affidavit. She finds herself in serious legal predicament.
The international community is watching the chair’s action. Failing the declaration of the right winner, the country could face sanctions and possibly ‘rendition’ of GECOM figures like the chair and CEO and Mingo. The chair should take note of the missive from Ms. Misir, the US public servant at State Department, that she and others could find themselves possibility being extradited to a foreign state to face trial for electoral fraud. Ms. Misir said sanction is not simply a word but includes, among things, issuance of international warrants for prosecution of those who aid and abet fraud and also those who are beneficiaries from forgeries. Many have been renditioned to the US on all kinds of fraud.
If the chair does not do the honourable thing, she could be forced to live like a prisoner for the rest of her life presuming she is not renditioned to face trial in America.
I urge the President, for whom I voted, to accept the result and let us move on with rebuilding our party.

Yours truly,
Nigel Philadelphia
