The EC in a statement on Monday said the collation of results is running smoothly across the country.

"The Electoral Commission informs the general public that the process of collating election result at all constituency and regional collation centres is currently ongoing in the presence of political party agents."

The elections management body has also stated that its National Collation Centre in Accra is only receiving collated Presidential election results from 16 regions as opposed to results from 275 constituencies as has been the case in the past.

"As such, we urge the Public and Stakeholders to remain calm and patient. The Commission will release all the certified results as soon as they are received", the EC said.
