Hon. Martin Adjei Mensah-Korsah, the current Member of Parliament(MP) for Techiman South Constituency, has broken his silence regarding the confusion surrounding the constituency’s election results.
The delayed announcement by the Electoral Commission has fueled tensions, with both the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) claiming victory.
Speaking on Accra-based Asempa FM, Hon Mensah-Korsah confidently stated, “I was leading by over 7,000 votes after collating 141 polling stations,” adding that the NPP collation showed he secured a clear victory.
He revealed that he was leading with over 7,000 votes before discrepancies arose, which he attributed to disruptions by opposition supporters.
“I have evidence on my pink sheet. I carefully calculated the results with my team,” he explained, emphasizing their diligence in ensuring accuracy. To safeguard the process, his team duplicated the pink sheets, retaining a copy before submitting the original to the Electoral Commission for validation.
