Ghana’s Electoral Commission has declared Faustina Akurugu Elikplim, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate, as the Member of Parliament-elect for Dome Kwabenya. This announcement concludes weeks of disputes surrounding the constituency’s election results.

The decision follows the EC’s reversal of an earlier plan to rerun the election at a contentious polling station. This declaration solidifies the NDC’s position in the contested constituency and marks the end of a heated electoral standoff.
