Election 2020
NDC Guilty Of The Same Sin They Accuse Jean Mensah As They Keep Changing Their Techiman South Results
Techiman South, the 2020 version of Tain constituency, continues to be the bone of contention in a disputed election.
While the Electoral Commission, the constitutionally mandated referee of the elections have declared the seat for the NPP’s Martin Agyei Mensah Korsah, the NDC claims their candidate, Christopher Beyere is the legitimate winner.
What is interesting however, is how the NDC keeps changing its supposed figures and keep contradicting themselves as they do the very same thing they accuse the EC chairperson of doing.
Official declaration results declared by the EC indicated that Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah polled 49,682 votes as against 49,205 votes for Christopher Beyere of the NDC.
Interestingly, Leader and flagbearer of the NDC John Dramani Mahama on the 11th of December, 2020  claimed the  NDC candidate polled 50, 417 and NPP’s  49,825 votes,  a difference of 592.
However, Christopher Beyere himself on Joy midday news while speaking to Opoku Gakpo said he had won with 700 votes but later on same day on Joy newsnight when asked again he said he be given 2 minutes to look for it and returned with 50,420votes for himself and NPP 49,825 votes for the NPP’s candidate.
The NDC minority in parliament on the other hand is claiming that per their collations, the NDC polled 50,306 votes as against 50,013 for the NPP accusing the EC of rigging the polls in favour of Mr. Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah.
It is still not clear when all the controversy surrounding the Techiman South constituency will be put to rest, however, one thing remains clear that the EC is not the only one contradicting its own figures. The NDC is equally guilty.
