In Ghana, the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Jean Adukwei Mensa, has attributed delays in declaring the 2024 election results to disruptions caused by attacks on EC officers and the destruction of election logistics.
Speaking on Sunday, December 8, she appealed to political party supporters to desist from interfering with the collation process.
She explained that the collation process is complex and involves party agents, observers, and the media at every stage—from polling stations to the national collation centre.
Any disruption not only causes delays but also undermines the transparency of the process.
The EC Chair also noted that in cases where certain constituencies face extreme delays, the Commission would proceed with the collation and declaration of presidential results, provided it does not affect the overall outcome.

Reassuring Ghanaians, Jean Mensa stated, “We have walked the path of transparency and accountability throughout this electoral process. The results we declare will reflect the will of the people as captured at the polls.”
In a related development, the Presidential candidate of the ruling NPP, Dr. Bawumia has conceded defeat and called to congratulate former President Mahama, who is the candidate for the NDC.
