In the case of the November 2010 election in Cote d\u2019Ivoire, ECOWAS observer has not been able to publish an interim report, four clear months after the election\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Adu said a report made by Societe Civile Africaine pour la Democratie et l\u2019Assistance Electoral (OSCADAE), a non-governmental organization (NGO) revealed that representatives of President Laurent Gbagbo were denied access to polling stations and ballot boxes were transported by men in military uniform without representatives from the Electoral Commission.<\/p>\n<p>The NGO also indicated that curfew was not observed in the Northern, Western and Central parts of the country and opening of polling stations were delayed for about 30 minutes to an hour.<\/p>\n<p>Mr Adu therefore declared the second round of voting in Cote d\u2019Ivoire as unfair and unclear.<\/p>\n<p>Source: GNA<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>\t \t\t |   | <a href=\"http:\/\/twitter.com\/home?status=Currently reading http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/01\/socialist-forum-asks-government-not-send-ghanaian-soldiers-to-cote-d%E2%80%99ivoire\/\" title=\"Click to send this page to Twitter!\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Tweet This!<\/a> |<br \/>\n\t\t<!--\n\t\t<rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1999\/02\/22-rdf-syntax-ns#\"\n\t\t\txmlns:dc=\"http:\/\/purl.org\/dc\/elements\/1.1\/\"\n\t\t\txmlns:trackback=\"http:\/\/madskills.com\/public\/xml\/rss\/module\/trackback\/\">\n\t\t<rdf:Description rdf:about=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/01\/socialist-forum-asks-government-not-send-ghanaian-soldiers-to-cote-d%e2%80%99ivoire\/\"\n    dc:identifier=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/01\/socialist-forum-asks-government-not-send-ghanaian-soldiers-to-cote-d%e2%80%99ivoire\/\"\n    dc:title=\"Socialist Forum asks government not send Ghanaian soldiers to Cote d&rsquo;Ivoire\"\n    trackback:ping=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/01\/socialist-forum-asks-government-not-send-ghanaian-soldiers-to-cote-d%e2%80%99ivoire\/trackback\/\" \/>\n<\/rdf:RDF>\t\t--><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h4>Comments<\/h4>\n<p>\t\t<!-- You can start editing here. --><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.ghanamma.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/6e581392Gbagbo.jpg-150x150.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Read the original:<br \/>\n<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.ghanabusinessnews.com\/2011\/04\/01\/socialist-forum-asks-government-not-send-ghanaian-soldiers-to-cote-d\u2019ivoire\/\" title=\"Socialist Forum asks government not send Ghanaian soldiers to Cote d\u2019Ivoire\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Socialist Forum asks government not send Ghanaian soldiers to Cote d\u2019Ivoire<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p> You Are Here: Home \u00bb Politics \u00bb Socialist Forum asks government not send Ghanaian soldiers to Cote d\u2019Ivoire Page last updated at Friday, April 1, 2011 11:11 AM \/\/ Laurent Gbagbo Socialist Forum of Ghana, has appealed to the Government not to allow Ghanaian soldiers to participate in any military intervention in Cote d\u2019Ivoire.
