Kadjebi (O/R), Aug 26, GNA-Ms. Gertrude Agyeiwaa, an Exhibition Officer at Anthony Educational Complex School Exhibition Centre, Kadjebi, says inadequate publicity on the ongoing Provisional Voter Register Exhibition exercise is a contributory factor to the low turnout.
She said the days when the Electoral Commission (EC) used vans to create awareness of the exercise and the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) was well-resourced to educate the citizenry on the need to turn up for such exercises, the exercise records high patronage.
Ms Agyeiwaa disclosed this to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) during a visit to the Centre on Sunday, August 25.
The Centre, which had 423 registered voters, saw only 63 voters checking their particulars as of Saturday, August 24.
She said the use of social media outlets in sensitisation and verification of voters’ details also contributed to the low turnout.
