We Won All The 12 Disputed Seats – NPP Presents Evidence To Media

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has claimed victory in 12 parliamentary constituencies, citing verifiable evidence from pink sheets amidst growing controversy surrounding the Electoral Commission’s (EC) handling of the collation process.

At a press conference on December 16, 2024, the party’s General Secretary, Justin Kodua Frimpong, declared the NPP’s parliamentary candidates had won in constituencies including Ablekuma North, Tema Central, Okaikwei Central, Dome Kwabenya, Ahafo Ano North, Ahafo Ano South West, Obuasi East, Techiman South, Nsawam-Adoagyiri, Suhum, Fanteakwa North, and Akwatia.

The NPP’s claims come against the backdrop of disruptions and alleged violence during collation. Frimpong accused the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) of orchestrating chaos in a deliberate attempt to disrupt the collation process.

Allegations of Disruption

The party alleged that NDC supporters and “hoodlums” stormed collation centres in several constituencies, leading to the destruction of electoral materials and disruptions in the collation of results. Frimpong condemned these actions, characterising them as attempts to “thwart the democratic process” and “steal the elections.”

“It is clear that the NDC leadership and their supporters who stormed the collation centers to compel the EC, under threat of death, to declare their candidates as winners, have labored in vain,” he said. “We are a country of rule of law, not rule of men.”

Calls for EC Action and Security Reinforcement

Frimpong called on the Electoral Commission to resume the collation process immediately, emphasizing the EC’s own admission that no official declarations of parliamentary results had been made in the disputed constituencies.

He further appealed to the National Election Security Taskforce to ensure the provision of adequate security to facilitate a peaceful collation process under calm conditions.

Mounting Political Tension

The allegations and counter-allegations have heightened tensions as both major political parties—NPP and NDC—remain locked in a fierce contest for parliamentary seats. The disputed constituencies are seen as critical to the overall balance of power in Parliament, adding urgency to the resolution of the controversies.

Observers and political analysts are now turning their attention to the Electoral Commission, which faces growing pressure to address the disruptions, verify the claims, and ensure a transparent collation process.

For now, the NPP maintains that its evidence from pink sheets is conclusive and reaffirms its confidence in reclaiming victory in the disputed constituencies.
