Transparency Required as Risk of Constitutional Breach Looms

Transparency International Papua New Guinea (TIPNG) is sounding the alarm on the risk of an inadvertent breach of both the election laws and the Constitutional requirements pertaining to the conduct of the 2022 National General Elections (NGE). Key information from the PNG Electoral Commission (PNGEC) has not been forthcoming inspite of several attempts made by TIPNG. Chairman Peter Aitsi said “Two weeks ago Electoral Commissioner Mr. Sinai published an announcement of the revised election schedule issued by Head of State, Governor General Sir Bob Dadai. On Friday 6th May 2022 PNGEC officials were unable to produce a gazettal notice, giving effect to this announcement.” This is a serious concern he went on to say.
