The Minority Chief Whip, Frank Annoh-Dompreh, has stated that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) will obstruct parliamentary activities until the Ablekuma North Constituency is appropriately represented in Parliament.

The processing of results for the constituency has been suspended for the past month due to ongoing disputes regarding the election outcome. One such disagreement resulted in the destruction of property at the Electoral Commission’s regional office.

Speaking to party supporters during a visit to the NPP’s Parliamentary Candidate for Ablekuma North, Ekua Afriyie, Annoh-Dompreh declared that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) would face unrest until the matter is settled.

“If the NDC, led by Mahama Ayariga, continues to deny that the NPP won the seat and distract the Electoral Commission’s process, they will never have peace in Parliament,” he said.

He further stated that if the Inspector General of Police (IGP) fails to hold accountable the NDC supporters from Ablekuma North who disrupted the collation process, the NPP members of Parliament will “persist with their demonstrations” to voice their dissatisfaction.

Annoh-Dompreh also set a seven-day ultimatum for the Electoral Commission (EC) to announce the winner for the constituency, underlining the need for a quick resolution.

“We are giving the EC one week; they must come and declare our candidate as the winner of the Ablekuma North election.”

In the meantime, both Ewurabena Aubyn of the NDC and Ekua Afriyie of the NPP have put up billboards asserting their victory in the contested election.
