Nana Akua Afriyie, the Parliamentary Candidate for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Ablekuma North, has vowed to persist relentlessly in asserting her victory in the constituency’s parliamentary elections.
Speaking at the collation centre in Accra on Wednesday, January 8, 2025, Afriyie expressed her unwavering commitment to ensuring that the truth prevails in the electoral process.
“We have 281 polling stations in Ablekuma North. It was left with 62 and by the grace of God truth will stand. In the first place, I appreciate the justice system that we should go and collate, and I am firm. I want to say on record that I will fight till the end because I know I won,” she declared.
Afriyie highlighted her meticulous preparation, stating, “I have all my 281 pink sheets scanned. I did it immediately before the gentleman who came and tore everything from the EC.”
“…Gradually we are left with three polling stations. By the grace of God, I am leading comfortably and that is the fear.”
Meanwhile, the Returning Officer for the Ablekuma North Constituency, Vincent Obeng, has announced his decision to discontinue the collation of results in the area.
He informed the Electoral Commission (EC) to find a replacement, citing frustrations encountered during the collation process on January 8, 2025.
Obeng revealed that, out of seven polling stations, results from four had already been collated, leaving just three remaining.
