The Electoral Commission (EC) is set to commence its nationwide voter exhibition exercise today, August 20, and will run until August 27. The exercise aims to enable voters to locate their polling stations and ensure the accuracy of the voter register.
According to Dr. Bossman Asare, Deputy Chairman of the EC in charge of Corporate Services, registered voters can use this opportunity to request the inclusion of omitted names, object to names of unqualified voters, and request the removal of deceased persons’ names.
The EC is urging the public, especially registered voters, to actively participate in the exercise to help update and produce a credible voter register for the 2024 general elections.
During the exhibition, citizens can also object to the names of minors (those under 18) and foreigners, as well as persons not resident in the electoral areas where they registered.
“The Commission again, urges 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” he noted during a press briefing in Accra.
To ensure a smooth process, the Inspector General of Police Dr. George Akuffo Dampare highlighted that police officers will be deployed to maintain order at the various voter exhibition centers.
The public is encouraged to take advantage of this opportunity to verify their details and make necessary corrections.
