EC Chairperson hauled to Parliament over ballot printing and undeclared Ablekuma-North results

In a move to reinforce transparency and electoral accountability, Parliament has announced plans to summon the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission (EC), Jean Mensah, next week to respond to critical questions raised by Members of Parliament.
The announcement was made by Majority Leader Mahama Ayariga during the presentation of the business statement for the coming week.
The appearance of the EC Chairperson is expected to address two key concerns submitted by Mr Rockson-Nelson Etse Kwami Dafeamekpor, Member of Parliament for South Dayi.
The first question seeks to determine whether the EC has awarded any contracts for the printing and supply of ballot papers for the 2024 General Elections.
The inquiry is aimed at examining the transparency of procurement processes and ensuring the integrity of electoral logistics.
The second question relates to the delayed declaration of the Ablekuma-North Parliamentary results, which have remained officially unannounced since the December 7 polls.
Mr. Dafeamekpor is demanding answers from the EC Chairperson on what has caused the prolonged delay and why the results have not been made public.
