The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has filed a legal challenge against the results declared for the Obuasi East, Ahafo Ano North, and Ahafo Ano South West parliamentary elections.
The NDC’s application seeks to overturn the declarations made by the Electoral Commission (EC) concerning the Obuasi East, Ahafo Ano North, and Ahafo Ano South West constituencies.
The party has committed to pursuing the case until what it considers justice is achieved.
On December 21, 2024, the Electoral Commission officially declared the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Patrick Boakye-Yiadom, Eric Nana Agyemang-Prempeh, and Elvis Osei Mensah Dapaah as the winners of the Obuasi East, Ahafo Ano North, and Ahafo Ano South West parliamentary elections, following a recount and re-collation process mandated by the High Court.
Speaking to the media after an appearance at the Kumasi High Court, Lead Counsel for the NDC, Evans Amankwaa expressed resentment over the EC decision to re-collate results in the three constituencies.
He expressed optimism in the NDC’s application to over-turn what he described as a travesty of justice.
