It comes after the Minority in Parliament protested against the results challenging the EC for a copy of the collation form. They insist the evidence on the pink sheet available to both parties indicate that the NDC won the seat.
However reacting to the claim at a press conference in Accra, the campaign chairman of the NPP Peter Mac Manu said: “We have called you in respect of the Techiman South constituency. I must state that we do not speak for the EC, but we speak for ourselves. It is important to state upfront that the NPP parliamentary candidate for Techiman South, Mr. Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah won that election as so declared by the EC. For the avoidance of doubt, we present the results of Techiman South as per all the pink sheets available to us.”
“Martin Adjei Korsah who represented the NPP had 49,682 and the NDC candidate Christopher Bayere Baasongti had 49,205. So per this, our candidate was duly elected for Techiman South for the next Parliament 2021.”
