The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana has stated that the results for the Dome Kwabenya and Ablekuma North constituencies will be finalised soon and their Members of Parliament-elect declared.

Deputy Commissioner in charge of Corporate Services, Dr. Bossman Asare, assured the constituents that the elected MPs would be declared ahead of the swearing-in ceremony of the ninth parliament, which is scheduled for January 6, 2025.

Speaking at a press conference in Accra on Tuesday, December 24, 2024, Dr. Bossman Asare said the electoral will resolve the outstanding issues promptly.

He disclosed that the delays in announcing the results for the two constituencies were due to disputes raised by stakeholders, which necessitated additional scrutiny to uphold the integrity of the electoral process.

“We are hopeful that the two outstanding constituencies will have their MPs elected very, very soon, way before the swearing-in parliament,” Dr. Asare stated.

Meanwhile, the EC has revealed that “During the collation process, supporters of political parties invaded several centres, demanding the declaration of results in favour of their preferred candidates. This led to disruptions, the destruction of EC properties, and in some instances, the declaration of incorrect results."
