The Electoral Commission (EC) has defended its decision to re-collate results in nine parliamentary constituencies following the December 2024 elections, emphasizing that the practice is not unprecedented.
This announcement comes amidst sharp criticism from the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), which alleges irregularities in the process.
On Saturday, December 21, the EC re-collated results in seven out of the nine disputed constituencies, with all outcomes favouring candidates from the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
The affected constituencies include: Ahafo Ano North Techiman South Ahafo Ano South West Nsawam-Adoagyiri Obuasi East Okaikwei Central Tema Central The re-collation was necessitated by disputes and alleged irregularities in the original tabulation process, with legal challenges compelling the EC to revisit the results in these constituencies.
