According to reports, a High Court in Accra has denied the National Democratic Congress' (NDC) request for an injunction to prevent the Ghanaian Electoral Commission from recollecting the results of five constituencies in which their parliamentary candidates had previously been proclaimed the winners. A judicial review order in the forms of declaration, certiorari, prohibition, and injunction was sought in the lawsuit, which was filed on Monday, December 16, 2024. According to the action, the NDC, the first applicant, argues that it is not possible to re-collect and re-declare declarations made in the December 7 elections in favor of the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth applicants, respectively, Faustina Elikplim Akurugu (Dome Kwabenya), Baba Sadiq (Okaikwei Central), Ewurabena Aubynn (Ablekuma North), Ebi Bright (Tema Central), and Samuel Aboagye (Obuasi East).
In keeping with its previous statements, the NDC once more argued that the EC "has become functus officio and therefore cannot re-collate, recount, and re-declare the results of the already declared election results in the stated constituencies." In the Dome Kwabenya, Okaikwei Central, Ablekuma North, Tema Central, and Obuasi East constituencies, the party also requested an injunction that would prevent the respondent from re-collating, re-counting, and re-declaring the results of the parliamentary election that had already been tallied and announced.
