The Supreme Court of Ghana has made a landmark ruling, quashing the re-collated parliamentary election results for four constituencies: *Okaikwei Central*, *Ablekuma North*, *Tema Central*, and *Techiman South*. This decision overturns the Electoral Commission’s (EC) declarations for these constituencies, which had been a subject of controversy.

The ruling comes after the National Democratic Congress (NDC) challenged a High Court order directing the EC to re-collate results in nine disputed constituencies. The NDC argued that the re-collation process was unlawful and flawed, undermining the transparency and integrity of the electoral process.

In its decision, the Supreme Court held that the trial judge violated the NDC parliamentary candidates’ right to a fair hearing when they applied to the High Court. The court also emphasized the judiciary’s critical role in resolving electoral disputes and ensuring strict adherence to constitutional and procedural requirements.

Notably, the Supreme Court upheld the re-collated results for *Nsawam Adoagyiri* and *Ahafo Ano South West*, leaving them unaffected by the ruling. The court’s decision is expected to have significant political ramifications, as stakeholders and constituents closely monitor further developments.
