EC extends voters exhibition exercise by two days

The Electoral Commission (EC) has extended the voters exhibition exercise by two days.

This, according to the commission, is aimed at serving the interest of its stakeholders and promote greater participation and inclusion.

By this, the exercise which started last Friday, September 18, would end on Sunday, September 27, 2020.

A statement issued by the EC on Wednesday said, “The Commission is of the view that this extension will allow even more stakeholders to check and verify their voter registration details. This is instrumental for the achievement of a clean and credible Voters Register.

“The last day of the Exhibition Exercise will therefore be Sunday 27th September, 2020. We encourage the Public to take advantage of the extension by making time to verify their registration details.”

Meanwhile the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has expressed dissatisfaction in the voter exhibition exercise.

According to the Flagbearer of the party, Mr John Mahama, the ongoing voter register exhibition has been fraught with “so much disorder, anarchy and chaos”.
