High Court Orders EC to Re-Collate and Declare Results for Ablekuma North
Hmmm, something big is happening in Ablekuma North! The High Court in Accra has told the Electoral Commission (EC) to go back and re-count the votes for 62 polling stations that were left out during the first collation. This means the results that were announced earlier may not be final.

Here’s what happened: during the election, there were 281 polling stations in Ablekuma North, but the EC only counted votes from 219 of them. Hmmm, this made some people wonder, “What happened to the votes from the other 62 stations?” So, the case was taken to court.
The judge looked into it and decided it wasn’t fair to leave those votes out. The court has now ordered the EC to include the missing results and then declare the winner based on the full count.
The judge also said, “Let’s make sure everyone is safe during this process.” So, the police have been asked to provide security while the EC works on the re-collation.
This is a big deal because every vote matters! The people of Ablekuma North are watching closely, hoping the final results will reflect the true will of the voters. It’s a reminder that fairness and transparency are so important in elections.
For now, everyone is waiting to see what happens next. Fingers crossed that everything is done properly this time!
