On Friday, December 27, 2024, the Supreme Court will consider arguments brought by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) challenging six disputed parliamentary election results. Among other things, the party wants the Supreme Court to overturn the High Court's ruling that allowed the Electoral Commission (EC) to recollect and announce the results in the seats of Ablekuma North, Okaikoi Central, Tema Central, Dome-Kwabenya, Techiman South, and Ahafo Ano North. The NDC contends that the High Court's decision to accept a Mandamus application from six New Patriotic Party parliamentary candidates on Friday, December 20, under the presidence of Justice Rev. Joseph Owusu-Adu Agyemang, is unlawful.
The party then appealed to the highest court to overturn the High Court's ruling. Since then, the Electoral Commission has re-examined and announced that the New Patriotic Party had won seven of the nine parliamentary results. The National Democratic Congress requested the following reliefs from the Supreme Court: Order of Certiorari directed to the High Court (General Jurisdiction 13), Accra, to bring orders of the High Court dated December 20, 2024, before this Honorable Court for quashing.
In the contested constituency, an Order of Prohibition prohibits the interested party (EC) from gathering or recollecting, counting or recounting, and announcing the results. An order of interlocutory injunction prohibiting the interested party from collating or re-collating, counting or recounting, and declaring the election results in the contentious constituencies, as well as the 8th interested party (IGP) from offering security for the illegal exercise of election declaration, counting, and collation while the case is still pending.
