The New Patriotic Party (NPP) plans to challenge the Electoral Commission’s (EC) decision to conduct a rerun in 19 polling stations in the Ablekuma North Constituency.
The NPP argues the EC lacks the legal basis to call for a rerun in only selected polling stations.
Addressing a press briefing in Accra on July 3, the General Secretary of the NPP, Justin Kodua Frimpong, argued that the EC lacks the legal basis to call for a rerun in only selected polling stations and said the party will take the matter to court.
“The NDC knows that they lost the election. We are in the NPP, shall stop at nothing in our quest to ensure that the power that has been respected and upheld by the democratic rights and sovereign will of the people of Ablekuma North, as expressed by them on December 7, 2024, is upheld.
"Therefore, we have caused our legal directorate to challenge the directive in court. We shall file in court and challenge the whimsical, capricious directive by the EC,” he said.
