His comments come on the back of the clash between the NDC MPs and personnel of the Ghana Police Service at the premises of the Electoral Commission in Accra.
According to Fuseini, the opposition legislators would double down on the resolve to fight any form of electoral injustice against the NDC.
The NDC MPs led by the Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu, on Tuesday, December 22, 2020, brawled with the police after they were barred from petitioning the chairperson of the EC, over the Techiman South Parliamentary seat which was declared in favour of the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP).
