Ashaiman, Oct. 09, GNA — The International Foundation for Electoral Systems (IFES), has called on all Ghanaians to uphold the integrity and credibility of the electoral register, stressing that the responsibility should not be left solely in the hands of politicians.

In an interview with the Ghana News Agency in Ashaiman, Mr Gilbert Sam, the senior elections specialist at IFES, emphasized the importance of citizens taking an active role in the electoral process to ensure transparency ahead of the 2024 general elections.

Mr Sam noted that the electoral register is the foundation of any credible election, adding that it was essential that all Ghanaians, not just politicians, take responsibility for its integrity.

“When citizens are vigilant and involved, it reduces the chances of manipulation and ensures that the process is transparent,” he stated.

He further urged the Electoral Commission (EC) to collaborate closely with various stakeholders, including civil society organisations, political parties, and the media, to eliminate any negative perceptions surrounding the voters’ register.
