She affirmed that all required records are intact, dismissing calls for a fresh election stemming from disputes over the collation process.

A High Court ruling on January 4, 2025, instructed the Electoral Commission (EC) to complete the collation of results and announce winners for four pending parliamentary elections. While results have been declared in three constituencies, Ablekuma North remains unresolved.

Collation resumed on January 8, 2025, but was disrupted due to missing results from three polling stations. The EC initially planned to continue the process on January 17, 2025, at 8:00 AM. However, following a security assessment, the Ghana Police Service advised postponement.

Nevertheless, the EC, in a statement on January 17, disclosed that law enforcement did not provide sufficient security at the collation center, resulting in an incursion by party supporters and another suspension of proceedings.

“I don’t agree in any way. We are not going for any rerun. We are going to collate those three polling stations.” Afriyie declared.
