EC asks Parties to produce their copies of Statement of Results
The EC has given the party agents for Ablekuma North one hour to provide, either hard or soft copies of their Statement of Results sheets.
The EC made the request after the NDC agents for Ablekuma North had taken issues with the proposal to use scanned copies of the results for the collation in the absence of hard copies of results.
The NDC agents argue that the soft copies the Statement of Results for the collation should not come from the political parties but from the Commission.
“We will not use [accept] scanned copies today nor tomorrow”, NDC Agents for Ablekuma North insist.
