 After a successful election, results were collated and authenticated and later, before the close of school, an assembly was called for the results to be read out to the student body for them to know which student won the election for the various portfolios.
These were the results:

For the Sports and Entertainment Prefect Portfolio, Iddrisu Jamaldeen Dobino won with Mohammed Fawaz assisting him.

Iddrisu Abdul Wakil won with the highest votes followed by Abukari Rafia who automatically becomes the assistant for the Health Prefect Portfolio.

With the Compound Prefect Portfolio, Abubakari Rashida had the highest votes with Atapagra Daniel trailing her. So Abubakari Rashida becomes the main prefect assisted by Addey Felicia.

Then the Girls Prefect Portfolio had Gifty Osei sweeping the highest votes trailed by Koyiri Stephanie who then assists Gifty Osie.

For the enviable portfolio of the Senior Prefect, Abubakari Sherif was no match for Ali Pelpuo Sansuma who was leading with a whooping number of vote difference of about sixty. Ali Pelpuo Sansuma becomes the Senior Prefect of mother ELSIE LUND SCHOOLS for the 2017/2018 academic year and would be assisted by Abubakari Sherif.

The next event to take place is the handing-over ceremony whose date is yet to be fixed.
