Politicians cautioned on obstruction
of registration exercises
Ejisu (Ash), June 8, Ghanadot/GNA- Mrs. Alberta Mensah Bonsu,
the Ejisu-Juaben District Electoral Officer of the Electoral
Commission (EC) has appealed to the various political
parties to desist from embarking on activities that could
obstruct the forthcoming limited registration exercise.
She indicated that the practice where politicians convey
people, including under age in vehicles to registration
centres to have their names inscribed in the voters register
was out of order and must be stopped.
Briefing members of the Ejisu-Juaben Municipal Assembly on
the activities of the EC at Ejisu on Wednesday, Mrs. Bonsu
stressed that such practice and many others affected the
registration exercise and could lead to social disorder.
She called on the Assembly Members to support the Commission
to have a successful exercise when the limited registration
exercise commenced this year, adding that, the EC would deal
with people who encouraged unqualified individuals to
register.
Mr. Yaw Ahenkora Afrifa, the Ejisu-Juaben Metropolitan Chief
Executive commended Mrs. Bonsu for her relentless efforts to
ensure free and fair election in the Municipality.
He pledged the Assembly’s support and cooperation to EC for
a peaceful election this year.
