The NDC is challenging the results of presidential and parliamentary elections, having accused the Electoral Commission (EC) of rigging the polls.
This follows President Akufo-Addo’s successful reelection after garnering over six million votes in the December 7 polls.
The 76-year-old, who contested as the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) presidential candidate, won the election after polling 51.30% of the total votes cast.
His main rival, Mahama of the opposition NDC also managed to poll 47.36% of the total votes cast.

Mahama has already filed a petition at the Supreme Court seeking to overturn the results, with the court having already granted the former president’s request to have the hearing telecasted live.
