Voter’s exhibition exercise begins today, Aug 20

The Electoral Commission (EC) of Ghana will begin its nationwide voter exhibition exercise today, August 20, and will continue until August 27.

Dr. Bossman Asare, the EC's Deputy Chairman in Charge of Corporate Services, stated that the effort intends to assist voters in locating their individual voting locations.

During a news conference on Monday, August 19, Dr. Bossman Asare stated that registered voters can seek the addition of omitted names, object to voter names in the register, and request the removal of deceased persons' names, among other things, during this period.

“The Commission again, urged the general public, especially, registered voters to show interest in the voter exhibition exercise to assist the Commission in updating and producing a credible voter register for the 2024 general elections.

“The exhibition exercise also provides an avenue for qualified citizens to object to the names of minors, and foreigners. By minors, we mean those who are not 18 years old. In addition, qualified applicants can object to the names of persons who are not residents in the electoral areas where they registered," he added.
