Sammy Gyamfi Rejects EC’s Re-Collation of Parliamentary Results
Sammy Gyamfi, the National Communications Officer for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has strongly criticized the Electoral Commission (EC) for its re-collation of parliamentary election results, labeling it a “cantata” manipulated by the New Patriotic Party (NPP). In a Facebook post, Gyamfi reassured NDC supporters that the party remains resolute in its pursuit of electoral justice. He urged them to disregard the ongoing re-collation exercise, calling it a politically motivated effort orchestrated by the NPP-supported EC. “Comrades, he who laughs last, laughs best,” Gyamfi wrote, signaling the party’s confidence that they will ultimately prevail by January 7.
The EC’s re-collation process has seen five out of nine contested parliamentary seats declared in favor of the NPP, with some of these originally awarded to the NDC. In response, the NDC has denounced the results, describing the entire process as “illegal,” “manipulated,” and a betrayal of Ghana’s democratic principles. The party accused the EC of colluding with the police and military, claiming that the re-collation is part of a broader strategy to undermine the democratic process and disenfranchise voters. They also condemned what they termed an “unholy alliance” between the EC and other political forces, which they believe has led to the unlawful manipulation of the election outcomes.
In addition to the electoral dispute, the NDC has raised concerns about the broader implications of these actions on the stability of the nation. The party alleges that the EC’s actions are part of a deliberate attempt to destabilize the country for political gain. Despite these accusations, Gyamfi and the NDC remain determined, expressing confidence that the final outcome will favor them and that their supporters should remain patient. The party's resolve to challenge the re-collation process suggests that the political tension surrounding the results is far from over, as both sides prepare for what is expected to be a highly contested electoral battle.
