Ghana’s Electoral Commission (EC) is facing intense criticism for its handling of the disputed parliamentary election results. Apexnewsgh reports
Inusah Fuseini, a former Member of Parliament for Tamale Central, has accused the EC of leading the country into a constitutional crisis.
Speaking on Joy News, Fuseini expressed concerns over the EC’s repeated changes to the election outcomes, calling it a “highly incompetent action” that threatens the nation’s stability. He emphasized that the court never pronounced on whether the EC can declare and change results multiple times, highlighting the gravity of the situation.
The controversy surrounds the re-collation of parliamentary results for nine constituencies, where seven were declared in favor of the New Patriotic Party. The Supreme Court quashed results from some constituencies, citing violations of the right to a hearing for NDC Parliamentary candidates.
Fuseini warned that the EC’s conduct could incite widespread public outrage, potentially plunging the country into chaos. He also criticized the EC’s rush to re-collate disputed results and alleged a conflict of interest, stating that the EC appears to be an “interested party” in the case.
