Kumasi Aug. 22, GNA – Intermittent rains, coupled with cold weather and low turn-out, characterized the first day of the voter register exhibition exercise in the Ashanti region.
The seven-day voter register exhibition exercise by the Electoral Commission (EC) is to create opportunity for all registered voters to check and verify their names in the national electoral roll to enable them to participate in the upcoming December general elections.
A visit to some of the exhibition centres by the Ghana News Agency on Tuesday August 20, 2024, the first day of the exercise, indicated a very low turn-out.
Some people, including political activists, EC officials and election watchers, who spoke to the GNA, said it could be due to the intermittent rainfall all day, which was associated with cold weather.
Others also attributed it to the usual Ghanaian attitude of last minute of doing things.
