The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has strongly rejected the re-collated parliamentary election results declared by the Electoral Commission (EC).
The re-collation process which took place at the EC’s Greater Accra Regional office on Saturday, December 21, saw five out of nine parliamentary results declared in favour of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
In a statement issued by the General Secretary, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, the party described the declaration as “illegal, manipulated, and a betrayal of Ghana’s democratic principles.”
They accused the EC, led by Jean Mensa, of undermining the integrity of the electoral process and compromising its mandate to serve the people fairly.
“The NDC strongly condemns these undemocratic practices and reminds all involved that electoral crimes have no expiry date and that the date of reckoning would come,” portions of the statement noted.
According to the NDC, the EC’s actions amount to an “assault on democracy,” facilitated by alleged collusion with the police and military.
