The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has disclosed its decision to conduct a rerun of the parliamentary election in 19 polling stations in the Ablekuma North Constituency.
The EC took the decision following the dispute over the authenticity of election results from the December 7, 2024, general election.
A statement issued by the electoral body on July 2, 2025, explained that the decision was reached after a follow-up meeting with representatives of the two main political parties—the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the New Patriotic Party (NPP)—held on Tuesday, July 1, 2025.
The statement which was signed by Samuel Tettey, Deputy Chairman of Operations at the EC, indicated that following extensive deliberations, the EC has resolved to rerun the election in 19 of the 37 polling stations.
According to the EC, although the scanned results from these stations were approved by both party agents, they lacked verification by the presiding officers.
The remaining 18 scanned results, the Commission noted, were verified by both the agents and the presiding officers and will therefore not be subject to a rerun.
The rerun is scheduled for Friday, July 11, 2025.
The EC assured the public that it remains committed to transparency, fairness, and integrity throughout the process.
