The (NDC) has sued the (EC) over the re-collation of five Constituencies that their Parliamentary Candidates had earlier been declared winners.
The action filed on Monday, December 16, 2024, is seeking an order of judicial review in the nature of Declaration, Certiorari, Prohibition, and Injunction.
Per the action, the NDC which is the 1st Applicant contends that declarations made in the December 7 elections in favour of Faustina Elikplim Akurugu, (Dome Kwabena), Baba Sadiq, (Okaikwei Central), Ewurabena Aubynn (Ablekuma North), Ebi Bright, (Tema Central) and Samuel Aboagye (Obuasi East), 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th and 6th Applicants, cannot be re-collated and re-declared.
The NDC again submitted that the EC following their earlier declarations "has become functus officio and therefore cannot re-collate, recount and re-declare the results of the already declared election results in the stated constituencies." The party is also seeking an Order prohibiting the Respondent from re-collating, re-counting, and re-declaring the already collated and declared parliamentary election results in the Dome Kwabenya, Okaikwei Central, Ablekuma North, Tema Central, and Obuasi East constituencies.
