“NPP Slams EC’s Decision to Rerun Elections in Ablekuma North”

The party’s General Secretary cited a letter from the EC to the NPP, dated June 3, which stated that only three polling stations were outstanding. Additionally, the EC’s Deputy Chairperson, Dr. Bossman, had testified before Parliament that only three polling stations were left to collate results.
