Voters Exhibition exercise: EC chair assures the inclusion of all illegible voters before general elections



Speaking to Mr. Francis Owiredu, the Dormaa Central Municipal Director of the Electoral Commission he said the exhibition processes enable the electoral commission to detect and correct errors associated with details of the voter’s Identity Card (ID) to stimulate peaceful voting operations adding that it helps in the detection and annulment of unqualified names from the register.

He said his outfit has ensured a successful exhibition since the exercise commenced on Friday and so efforts are being put in place to ensure all legible registered voters are captured in the Voter register before the 2024 general elections for successful electoral processes pleading that all persons must exercise patience at the exhibition venues in case there is an omission of names and other details.

Mr. Francis Owiredu finally advised all well-meaning Ghanaians and voters to visit their polling centers for the exhibition exercise since today ends the process adding that one can present the death certificate or burial permit of their dead relatives to ensure their names are erased from the books of the electoral commission to enhance transparent and peaceful voting processes.

The Aspiring Parliamentary Candidate for the Oforikrom Constituency, Mr. Michael Akwasi Aidoo, praised the Emena community for participating in a cleanup effort that was organized to mark the funeral rite of the Emena Queenmother Obaapanin, Afia Sarpong who passed away last year.

Mr. Michael Aidoo expressed his dissatisfaction with the roads in the Emena Community and requested that the contractor who was awarded the contract take expeditious action on them. Although, he was thrilled that nearly all of the youth participated in the exercise to maintain the environment clean.

In addition, he stated that the Emena school requires enlargement to house the enormous number of children in the neighborhood and that he is in communication with the NLA to assist the school.

Mr. Aidoo commended Attorney Abraham Kwame Antwi, the Municipal Chief Executive of Oforikrom, for fencing the school for the community.

As part of the arrangements for the final funeral rites of Emena’s Queen Mother, Nana Afia Sarpong, who passed away in 2022, the Assembly members, members of the Unit Committee, and traditional leaders spearheaded a massive clean-up effort in the community.
