NDC Ho Central Election: Cherubim Zigah Refuses To Sign Results

Tension has been reported in the Ho Central constituency of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) after communications officer aspirant Cherubim Zigah raised concerns about the total number of ballots counted during the party’s constituency-level elections.

According to reports by ChannelOneNews, Zigah has questioned the figures recorded during the voting process and instructed his polling agent not to sign the official election documents.

The move has raised uncertainty over whether the aspirant and his team will accept the outcome of the contest. Zigah is reportedly dissatisfied with the ballot count and believes the figures require further examination before his camp can determine its next course of action.

The refusal to sign the polling documents indicates that his concerns remain unresolved. Such documents serve as an official record of electoral figures and can help document objections raised by candidates or their representatives during the process.

However, the decision not to sign the documents does not automatically invalidate the election results. Any formal challenge would depend on the NDC’s internal electoral procedures and the evidence presented to support the allegations.

Zigah has also indicated that his team has yet to make a final decision on whether to accept the results and concede defeat. Consultations are reportedly ongoing as his camp assesses the disputed figures and considers possible next steps.

The development comes as the NDC conducts constituency-level elections to select executives who will oversee local party affairs, coordinate political activities and mobilise supporters ahead of future elections.

These positions are important to the party’s grassroots organisation, as constituency executives help maintain contact with members and implement decisions taken by regional and national leadership.

Disagreements over ballot totals and election documentation can create uncertainty during internal contests, particularly when aspirants question whether the announced figures accurately reflect the votes cast.

In Ho Central, attention is now focused on how the concerns raised by Zigah will be addressed and whether his team will accept the results or pursue a formal complaint through the party’s established dispute-resolution mechanisms.

For now, the aspirant’s position remains unresolved, with his camp yet to announce a final decision on conceding defeat. The situation has highlighted the importance of transparent ballot counting, accurate record-keeping and effective procedures for addressing electoral grievances within the party.
