Former MP Issah Fuseini blasted Ghana's Electoral Commission over their latest move. The EC wants to redo voting at 19 stations across Ablekuma North constituency. Fuseini called their decision weird and shocking during a TV interview. The New Patriotic Party refuses to accept what happened and plans to fight back through the courts. Party leaders say they never agreed to this plan during recent meetings.
Fuseini thinks the National Democratic Congress pushed the EC into making this call. He pointed to comments from NDC chairman Asiedu Nketia about targeting the commission after dealing with judges. The former lawmaker appeared on Channel One TV and shared his concerns about political meddling. He said the NPP will stay peaceful and use legal channels to solve the problem. Party general secretary Justin Kodua already promised they would avoid causing chaos.
The Electoral Commission defended their choice and explained their reasoning. Officials found problems with vote counting at the affected polling stations. Pink sheets from these locations had party agent signatures but missed approval from presiding officers. Commission rules require both signatures to make results official.
Election officials will rerun voting at 19 stations but leave 18 others alone. The remaining stations followed proper procedures and passed verification checks. Both major parties plan to watch the new election closely. Political tensions keep rising as the date approaches.
