The Minority leader in Parliament, Haruna Iddrisu has threatened that the NDC MPs will boycott the inauguration of President Akufo-Addo as president of the country for the second term on January 7, 2021.
According to Haruna Iddrisu, the only thing that can change their mind is for the Electoral Commission to call for a re-collation of the parliamentary results in Techiman South.[ads2]
The Tamale South MP believes the declaration of NPP’s Martin Agyei Mensah Korsah as the winner of the Techiman South parliamentary election is fraudulent and as a party have rejected the result.
“We are standing in denial by collusion of fraud by the Electoral Commission and the NPP. It is not acceptable, you know they are just joking with Techiman South, add it to their number and claim a false 137 which they don’t deserve their 136,” Mr Iddrisu said.[ads3]
“If Techiman South results is not resolved amicably and satisfactorily in accordance with the laws of Ghana and in particular with regulation 43 of CI 127 and more emphatically collation than openly and transparently by EC and we remain in denial that we don’t have the results for Techiman South we will be thinking through what to do on January 7,” he added.[ads4]
On why the NDC has failed to go to court, Haruna Iddrisu said that, “in this particular matter I have been denied the results so what am I going to court with? With tomatoes and then oranges?” he asked.[ads5]
