EC receives presidential results from 14 regions; officially certifies seven

Date:

The Electoral Commission (EC) says it has acknowledged receipt of results from 14 out of the 16 regions, from this year’s general elections.

The electoral management body says it has officially certified the results from 7 regions.

Chairperson of the Commission, Mrs. Jean Mensa, at a media briefing at midnight on Wednesday, December 9, 2020, says her outfit is looking forward to receiving the results from the two other regions before the final declaration of the presidential results.

“As we speak, the Commission has received 14 out of the 16 regional results. We have the national collation centre where we have had representatives of the various political parties since yesterday.

As the results come in, the party representatives review them against what they themselves have received from the regions and once they are satisfied that the results that have come to us from the regions are a true reflection of what they have received, they then append their signatures to it before the results are brought to my attention.

As returning officer of the 2020 presidential election,  I then certify these results. Out of the 14 results received, we have certified seven up to date”, she stated.
