Deputy Information Minister, Pius Enam Hadzide has said the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) is ‘confused’ with their own figures which suggest their presidential candidate won the December 7, presidential election.

He claims the NDC is only interested in making baseless arguments that will incite its supporters to cause pandemonium rather than backing their allegations with facts and figures.

Pius Enam Hadzide who was speaking on NEAT FM’s morning show 'Ghana Montie' told host Kwesi Aboagye that, “the NDC is still making mistakes the EC has corrected because they don’t even know what the real figures are.”

“They have held numerous press conferences claiming their candidate won even before the EC declared the results, but ask them the margin and they won’t be able to tell you,” he added.

EC admits mistake in presidential results

The Electoral Commission (EC) has clarified the disparities in the presidential election results percentages declared on Wednesday, December 9, 2020.

In a statement, the EC acknowledged that the Chairperson, Mrs. Jean Mensa “inadvertently used 13,433,573 as the total valid votes cast.”

The total valid votes cast is 13,119,460. This does not change the percentages stated for each candidate and the declaration made by the Chairperson,” the EC said in the statement issued Thursday morning, December 10, 2020.

The EC has since provided a summary of the 2020 presidential election results without the Techiman South constituency.

Already, the NDC has said it rejects the results of the elections.
