The Electoral Commission (EC) in Fanteakwa North has reversed its earlier declaration, awarding the parliamentary seat to the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) candidate, Kwame Appiah Kodua.
Initially, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate, Haruna Apaw-Wiredu, was declared the winner on December 10, 2024, after securing 11,138 votes against Kodua’s 10,847. However, disputes over pink sheets from two polling stations prompted the EC to halt proceedings for further review.
In a decisive turn, the Deputy Returning Officer announced that the seat now belongs to the NPP candidate, overturning the earlier result.
This development marks a dramatic shift in the constituency’s electoral outcome.
