Ashanti NDC raises concerns over irregularities in voter register

Kumasi Aug. 30, GNA – The Ashanti Regional secretariat of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has raised issues of irregularities in the voter register, which was recently exhibited by the Electoral Commission (EC).

According to the party the anomalies, if not promptly rectified, could severely compromise the integrity of the upcoming elections.

Dr. Frank Amoakohene, Ashanti Regional Secretary of the party, told the Ghana News Agency, that the NDC had detected numerous instances of questionable voter transfers, both into and out of specific constituencies within the Ashanti Region.

These transfers seemed to be irregular and raised suspicions of manipulation of the voter register with the intent to influence the election results.

Furthermore, he said, there had been instances of names of registered voters being omitted from the polling lists, and in certain cases, voters had been transferred to polling stations that were significantly distant from their original locations, including being moved to areas outside their designated electoral zones.
