Voter registration proceeding smoothly after initial challenges – EC assures
The Electoral Commission (EC) has said there were technical challenges with internet connectivity in a number of its centres delaying the start of the registration exercise on Tuesday, 7 May 2024, being the beginning of the limited voter registration exercise.
The EC, in a statement, however, revealed that by 12pm, the technical issues in most of the registration centres had been “resolved.”
“Consequently, the Registration exercise is proceeding smoothly in almost all the Registration Centres nationwide,” the EC assured Ghanaians.
It further assured that it would continue “to monitor the Registration Exercise and promptly address any issues that may arise.”
The EC also encouraged all “qualified applicants to avail themselves and register to vote in their respective districts.”
Tuesday, 7 May 2024, marked the commencement of a 21-day limited voter registration exercise being organised by the EC across the nation.
The exercise is targeting first-time voters and individuals seeking to obtain a voter card.
Running from Monday, 27 May 2024, the exercise aims to register approximately 623,000 new voters, as disclosed by Chairperson of the EC, Jean Mensa.
