There is heavy security presence at the Wenchi High Court ahead of the ruling on Techiman South 2020 Parliamentary election petition today.
The opposition NDC is in court challenging the outcome of the parliamentary elections in that constituency that saw the election of NPP’s Martin Adjei Mensah Korsah as MP.
The party maintains it won the parliamentary contest in the constituency but was cheated out of victory during the collation of results which was characterized by violence.
Some voters who had converged at the collation centre to witness counting died after live bullets were used by the military in an attempt to restore order.
Among other reliefs, the petitioner is seeking an order from the court directed at the EC to collate the results of all the polling stations in Techiman South and also for the EC to publicly declare Dr Christopher Beyere Baasongti as the legitimate winner of the Techiman South 2020 parliamentary elections.
