Electoral Commission Sets June 30 To Commence Voters Registration
The Electoral Commission has set June 30 to start the nationwide compilation of a New Voters Register.
A statement signed by Mrs Sylvia Annoh, Acting Director of Public Affairs, and copied the Ghana News Agency in Accra, said the exercise would be done at all the 33,367 designated registration centres and district offices of the Commission throughout the country, from 0700 hours to 1800 each day.
It said Ghanaian citizens, 18 years old and above, and of sound mind were expected to register in the electoral areas where they resided, or are ordinarily resident and must also not be prohibited from registering by any law in force.
The statement urged the public to adhere strictly to the safety measures, including the wearing of mask at all times, maintaining the social distancing protocol and using hand sanitizers, to protect applicants from contracting the COVID-19 virus.
It said all applicants would be notified of the movement plans of the registration teams through public announcements, since the cluster system of registration would be used.
The EC said security would be provided by the security agencies at all registration centres to protect lives and property during the exercise.
It appealed to all stakeholders to assist in making the registration exercise successful.
