The Electoral Com­mission (EC) has indicated that it will not accept the col­lated results of the Ablekuma North and Okaikwei Central constituen­cies in the just-ended parliamentary elections.

Addressing a press briefing in Accra yesterday, the EC Chair, Jean Mensa, explained that the Com­mission arrived at this decision because of irregularities recorded during the collation and subsequent declaration.

Mrs Jean Mensa According to the EC, the winner of Okaikwei Central was declared without results from 31 polling stations, while that of Ablekuma North omitted results from 62 polling stations.

Both constituencies were declared for candidates of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
