Confusion has once again erupted during a scuffle during the re-collation of the 2024 Ablekuma North parliamentary election results.
The chaos at the Electoral Commission’s (EC) office on Wednesday was triggered by the inclusion of a disputed pink sheet, which delayed the process.
This occurred after the Presiding Officer for one of the polling stations in Ablekuma North, Nathaniel Klimsman Avumeh, denied authenticating figures from his polling station ahead of a subsequent collation.
Tensions flared up as a party official slammed the table of the EC officials, sparking chaos that led to a physical altercation.
Police officers intervened to prevent further disruptions.
The EC suspended the collation process three days ago, citing challenges in working with results from 20 outstanding polling stations.
The process, which resumed today, January 8, 2025, was expected to be concluded; however, it was marred by concerns from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) over issues of result authentication.
