Ghana’s Electoral Commission has announced that there will be a rerun of the Council of State elections in the North East and Ashanti Region.
A statement issued on February 12, 2025, said the rerun in the North East Region became necessary after the two leading candidates garnered 6 votes each.
Also, in the Ashanti Region, the election was disrupted by thugs and therefore could not be concluded.
The Electoral Commission says the elections will be held on February 17, 2025 and they have written to the National Election Security Taskforce to provide security at the venues for the elections to avoid a repeat of what happened on February 11.
