Transparency International PNG has called on the Electoral Commission to take responsibility in delivering the national election. TIPNG Board Chairman Peter Aitsi echoed this is a media conference today, airing concerns over the conduct of election in PNG. He said with the right type of leadership, the Electoral Commission can be able to deliver the elections without any further delays, and achieving a positive outcome for the country as a whole.  Mr. Aitsi said “Unfortunately, what’s worse is that nobody is taking accountability for these problems.
