EC dismisses rerun in Ablekuma North Constituency
The Electoral Commission (EC) has ruled out a re-run of the 2024 parliamentary election in the Ablekuma North constituency in the Greater Accra Region, stating that results from three outstanding polling stations are yet to be collated.
Responding to questions on the floor of Parliament on Thursday, June 19, 2025 the EC’s Deputy Chairperson in charge of Corporate Services, Dr. Bossman Asare, emphasized that a rerun remains a measure of last resort.
“So, for Ablekuma North, we have not reached the point where we will say we don’t have the results. When we try and we cannot get the results, that is when we will resort to the rerun. The rerun will be a last option,” Dr. Asare said.
The EC has come under pressure from some stakeholders to resolve the prolonged parliamentary outcome in the constituency, where results from a few polling stations remain uncollated more than six months after the general election.
Dr. Asare reiterated the Commission’s commitment to completing the collation process once the remaining results are validated, ruling out any immediate plans for a fresh election in Ablekuma North
