The Electoral Commission in the Northern Region has declared Iddrisu Yakubu Abdulai of the NDC as Member of Parliament for the Savelugu Constituency.
He polled 19,577, beating the incumbent NPP candidate, Samad Gunu, who polled 19,478.
The declaration of the Savelugu parliamentary results was put on hold due to a disagreement between the NDC and NPP over an alleged over-voting at a polling station in the constituency.
Even though the NDC has endorsed the pink sheet containing the constituency results, the NPP refused to endorse the results.
