The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has firmly rejected calls for a re-run of the parliamentary election in the Ablekuma North constituency, insisting that its candidate, Akua Afriyie, emerged victorious.
Speaking on Channel One TV on Saturday, May 10, 2025, the NPP’s Greater Accra Regional Secretary, Daniel Parker Odarlai, stressed that the party has verified the results and found no justification for a re-run.
“As I speak, I know we have compared results, and we are left with only three polling stations,” Odarlai said.
He added: “It is not the case that the NDC was left out. There were even instances where the NDC presented photocopies of pink sheets — some of which were unclear — but we still compared them with ours and agreed.”
He emphasised that the NPP does not support any calls for a repeat of the election, insisting that Akua Afriyie won with a margin of 349 votes.
“We don’t agree to a re-run. Akua Afriyie won the election with a difference of 349 votes,” he stated.
Ablekuma North remains the only constituency without a Member of Parliament, months after the 2024 general elections, due to unresolved disputes surrounding the outcome of the parliamentary vote.
The IGP, Christian Tetteh Yohuno at a meeting between the Police Management Board and the National Election Security Taskforce emphasized that a clear electoral roadmap would enable better coordination between security forces and election officials.
