The governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) says it has secured a court order for the recall of Parliamentary election results in three constituencies in the Ashanti Region.
The three, namely, Obuasi East, Ahafo Ano South West and Ahafo Ano North, were some disputed constituencies that were declared in favour of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the aftermath of the 2024 Parliamentary poll.
Speaking in an interview on the Channel One Newsroom, Deputy Director of Elections and IT for the NDC, Rashid Tanko Computer indicated the party’s resolve to unseat all NPP MPs who were declared winners after the re-collation exercise through legal means.
“Three seats are being chased in Ashanti region. We have gotten the court to rule that we should serve them using substituted service. Obuasi East, Ahafo Ano South West and Ahafo Ano North, these three constituencies, we are chasing them. In fact, we filed election petitions against them.
“You know, they used the same modus operandi they used for Okaikwei Central, Tema Central and Techiman South by manufacturing pink sheets. And because they know they have electoral officers who are so corrupt that they can use them to do their bidding, then they will also accept those manufactured pink sheets and use it to declare them. That is why we have run to court.”
