Confusion has marred the Upper Denkyira West Collation Centre after the New Patriotic Party (NPP) challenged voting results.

The NPP presented figures which went contrary to the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and Electoral Commission’s (EC) pink sheet statistics.

Despite the anomality, the NPP insisted their figures, which were on the higher side, be used, but the official declined, leading to skirmishes.

In the course of the misunderstanding, bullets were shot into the crowd, forcing the observers to disperse in fear.
