Baba Sadiq Abdulai Abu of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has lost his bid to enter Parliament in his first attempt after the final collation of results in the Okaikwei Central constituency.

The revised tally declared Patrick Yaw Boamah of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as the MP-elect.

Boamah secured 21,099 votes, beating Baba Sadiq, who garnered 19,368 votes, with a victory margin of 1,731.

This final declaration followed a High Court directive that required the Electoral Commission to include results from 31 polling stations that had been omitted during the initial count.
