Voters exhibition exercise ongoing
The voters exhibition exercise has started today Tuesday, August 20 across the country and is expected to end on Tuesday, August 27, 2024.
Registered voters can request the inclusion of omitted names, object to names of voters in the register, and request the removal of names of deceased persons, among other things, during this period.
Speaking at a press conference on Monday, August 19, Dr. Bossman Asare “The Commission again, urged the general public, especially, registered voters to show interest in the voter exhibition exercise to assist the Commission in updating and producing a credible voter register for the 2024 general elections.
“The exhibition exercise also provides an avenue for qualified citizens to object to the names of minors, and foreigners. By minors, we mean those who are not 18 years old. In addition, qualified applicants can object to the names of persons who are not residents in the electoral areas where they registered.”
The Inspector General of Police, Dr George Akuffo Dampare, noted that police officers will be deployed to ensure that order prevails at the various voter exhibition centres.
“We urge the public to patronise the exercise. Go there if you are very concerned and if there is any security concern, speak to our officers on the ground and we will deal with it humanly in a way that will satisfy everybody.”
