Limited Voter Registration: Only 10 people have been registered since morning on Day 1 in Adaklu – Agbodza

Minority Chief Whip Kwame Agbodza

The Minority Chief Whip, Kwame Governs Agbodza,  has revealed that since the morning of Day 1 of the limited voter registration exercise on Tuesday, May 7, only ten people have been able to register.

He attributed this to the shutdown of the EC’s IT system.

He urged the Electoral Commission (EC) to be sensitive and ensure that more people are registered onto the electoral roll.

“In the whole of the Adaklu constituency, only 10 people have been registered since morning on day 1. The EC must be sensitive to Ghanaians,” the Adaklu lawmaker told TV3’s Komla Klutse.

The Electoral Commission (EC) commenced this year’s limited voter registration exercise on Tuesday, May 7, ahead of the December 7 general elections.

The 21-day exercise will end on Monday, May 27, 2024. It aims at individuals who have turned 18 years old since the last registration to be enrolled in the national album.

Also, according to the EC, the exercise will be conducted at its district offices and in difficult-to-access electoral areas.
