EC Commits to Fair Parliamentary Rerun in Ablekuma North Constituency
The Electoral Commission (EC) has pledged to conduct a transparent parliamentary election rerun in Ghana’s Ablekuma North constituency. Deputy Chairperson Dr. Bossman Asare announced Thursday, July 10, 2025, that all preparations for the polls have been completed.
Dr. Asare addressed media representatives to reassure voters about the commission’s commitment to electoral integrity. The EC official emphasized that the upcoming rerun will meet international standards for free and fair elections. He confirmed that logistical arrangements, including ballot papers and polling equipment, have been finalized.
The Ablekuma North constituency requires a rerun following unspecified issues during the original parliamentary election. This Greater Accra region constituency has drawn national attention as voters await the opportunity to elect their parliamentary representative.
The EC’s public statement aims to build voter confidence ahead of the rescheduled polls. Dr. Asare’s announcement comes as part of the commission’s transparency efforts to address public concerns about electoral processes.
The rerun represents a critical test for Ghana’s democratic institutions. The EC faces pressure to demonstrate its ability to manage credible elections following previous electoral disputes. Voters in Ablekuma North will determine their parliamentary representative through this supplementary election.
The commission has not yet announced the specific date for the rerun, though preparations indicate polling will commence soon.
