The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Justin Kodua Frimpong, has firmly rejected the Electoral Commission’s (EC) decision to conduct a parliamentary rerun in 19 polling stations in the Ablekuma North Constituency, insisting that the NPP candidate, Akua Afriyie, rightfully won the 2024 election.
Speaking at a press briefing on Tuesday, July 8, Mr. Kodua argued that the NPP secured a clear victory in the constituency and accused the EC of undermining the will of the people by ordering a rerun.
Mr. Kodua described the EC’s decision as unjust and urged the Commission to act in accordance with the facts and evidence presented during the electoral process.
However, the NPP maintains that all necessary procedures were followed and that the party’s agents, along with EC officials, had duly verified and signed the results at the polling stations involved.
The Electoral Commission is yet to respond formally to the NPP’s demands
