This matter is very important for our democracy and the condition of our country. It is only by God\u2019s grace that the people of this country are God-loving and have elected democracy as a form of government over any other government,\u201d Fuseni remarked.<\/p>\n<p>He emphasized the gravity of the situation, cautioning that the EC\u2019s conduct could incite widespread public outrage.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe conduct of the EC, which is highly incompetent, could throw this country into a mess, and people could rise up against the EC and this country, and this country will be in flames,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n<p>His comments follow the re-collation of Parliamentary results for nine constituencies where seven were declared in favour of the New Patriotic Party, whereas the NDC prosecuted and presented the cases before the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n<p>In response to this, the\u00a0 Supreme Court quashed results from the re-collation of votes in constituencies such as Tema Central, Ablekuma North, Techiman South, and Okaikwei Central.<\/p>\n<p>The Court\u2019s decision was based on the fact that the trial judge had violated the right to a hearing for the NDC Parliamentary candidates, who had petitioned the High Court.<\/p>\n<p>However, the Court clarified that its ruling would not affect the results for Ahafo Ano North and Nsawam Adoagyiri.<\/p>\n<p>Fuseni also expressed dissatisfaction with the EC\u2019s rush to re-collate the disputed results. \u201cIt appears to me that we ought not to have been in any rush at all into re-collating the results of the disputed constituencies,\u201d he stated, suggesting that the matter could have been handled more carefully.<\/p>\n<p>He further criticized the EC for what he saw as a conflict of interest. \u201cWe have been put into a constitutional crisis today because the EC appears to be the interested party in this case,\u201d Fuseni said.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Explore the world of impactful news with CitiNewsroom on WhatsApp!<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>Click on the link to join the Citi Newsroom channel for curated, meaningful stories tailored just for YOU: https:\/\/whatsapp.com\/channel\/0029VaCYzPRAYlUPudDDe53x<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p><em><strong>No spams, just the stories that truly matter! #StayInformed #CitiNewsroom #CNRDigital<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Inusah Fuseini, former Member of Parliament for Tamale Central, has accused the Electoral Commission (EC) of leading Ghana into a constitutional crisis with its attitude towards the handling of the disputed parliamentary election results.
