The Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensa, is expected to appear before Parliament this week to address the ongoing dispute surrounding the parliamentary election in the Ablekuma North Constituency.
The constituency has remained without a representative in Parliament since the December 7 general elections, due to unresolved issues regarding the collation of results from several polling stations.
The impasse has left residents without parliamentary representation for over six months.
On June 4, the Minority Caucus formally petitioned the Ghana Police Service, requesting enhanced security measures to ensure that the EC can complete the re-collation process in a safe and transparent manner.
Jean Mensa is scheduled to brief the Committee of the Whole in Parliament on the current status of efforts to resolve the stalemate.
Lawmakers are expected to press for clarity on the Electoral Commission’s timeline for completing the collation and formally declaring the outcome of the vote.
