The Electoral Commission (EC), says efforts are in place to resolve hitches associated with Limited Voter Registration. In a statement the AG. Director of Public Affairs, Michaeal Boadu admitted that its monitoring exercise revealed technical challenges.
”The Commission wishes to bring to the attention of the General Public that, following our monitoring of the Voters Registration Exercise this morning, we observed some technical challenges with internet connectivity in a number of centres. This delayed the start of the registration at a number of the Registration Centres.”
”We are happy to note that by 2 p.m., 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.”
Mr. Boadu said, ”the Commission will continue to monitor the Registration Exercise and promptly address any issues that may arise.”
EC encouraged all qualified applicants to avail themselves and register to vote in their respective districts.
Meanwhile, the nationwide voter registration by the Electoral Commission has entered day two today. The exercise is aimed at registering approximately 623,000 first-time voters across the country.
The Commission in collaboration with its key stakeholders including political parties identified 785 suitable electoral areas where registration is taking place including offices located in hard-to-reach communities.
