6,839 voters to decide who becomes Ablekuma North MP after 6-month impasse

Some 6,839 voters across 19 polling stations are expected to cast their ballots to bring closure to the long-standing impasse over the Ablekuma North parliamentary election.

The Electoral Commission has scheduled today, Friday, July 11, to conduct fresh elections in the polling stations whose results, it says, were not verified by its officers.

Both candidates—Nana Akua Owusu Afriyie of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Ewurabena Aubynn of the National Democratic Congress (NDC)—have expressed optimism about winning the polls.

“I want to put on record that darkness can never cover light. I am the light. I am the truth and the light. I walk with the gracious God. You can never cheat me, and the Lord is going to speak tomorrow as I contest,” NPP’s Akua Afriyie told the media on Thursday, July 10.

After a recollation of results from the other polling stations on Thursday, the NPP had secured 32,512 votes while the NDC garnered 32,464—a slim margin of 48 votes.

The 19 outstanding polling stations have over 6,000 registered voters whose ballots could decide the final outcome.

Meanwhile, parliamentarians and bigwigs from both parties have stormed the constituency to campaign for their candidates in a vote that could determine whether the ruling NDC secures a two-thirds majority in Parliament.

The Electoral Commission, at a press conference on Thursday, expressed its readiness to conduct the rerun, which had earlier faced fierce resistance from the NPP, who claimed victory in the original election.

On their part, the Ghana Police Service has assured the public of adequate security measures to ensure a smooth process.

“The Accra Regional Police Command wishes to assure the public of its preparedness to provide adequate security before, during, and after the parliamentary rerun at Ablekuma North Constituency scheduled for Friday, July 11, 2025,” the police said in a statement.

The service further appealed to the public “to cooperate fully with security personnel, observe electoral rules, and help maintain a peaceful atmosphere throughout the election.”
