The National Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, has criticized the ongoing re-collation of election results at the Police Training School for four constituencies in the Eastern Region, labeling the process as “illegitimate.”
Speaking at a press conference on Friday, December 13, Asiedu Nketiah argued that the re-collation, ordered by the Electoral Commission (EC) on December 12 for the Suhum, Nsawam Adoagyiri, Fanteakwa North, and Akwatia constituencies, lacks any legal basis.
These constituencies have been at the center of disputes over the initial collation of results, prompting the EC’s directive for a review.
“We in the NDC believe that what is happening at the police training school amounts to an illegality. It is not founded in any laws of our elections. Neither is it based on consensus that has been raised between the parties and the EC.
“We want to inform the nation and to give notice to any official of the commission and the police who are involved in the perpetuation of that illegality to know that there could be consequences of their actions in the future,” he stated.
