Claims that the Electoral Commission (EC) plans to establish 25 new constituencies nationwide in advance of the 2024 General Elections have been denied.
This follows rumors that the EC plans to expand the number of constituencies in advance of the 2024 election.
In a statement, the European Commission refuted the claims and informed the public that “it is only creating One Constituency, which is the Guan Constituency in the Oti Region.”
It emphasized that, “no decision on creating constituencies beyond that of the Guan” has been made.
Accordingly, the EC recommended that the “General Public disregard this statement.”
