Hon. Andrew Dari Chiwitey, Member of Parliament for Sawla-Tuna-Kalba constituency in the Savannah Region, has encouraged his constituents who have not register for a voter card to do so within the forthcoming limited registration period.
The politician resorted to a flyer with inscriptions to encourage his people to participate in the exercise.
Constituents who do not have the cards but have achieved the voting age should go to the EC District Office and register between September 12 and October 2, 2023, he encouraged.
The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced that the voters’ registration exercise for individuals who have reached the age of 18 will commence on Tuesday, September 12 to Monday, October 2, 2023.
The exercise will be conducted at all 268 District Offices across the nation.
The EC will, however, charge GHC10 for the replacement of a voter’s ID card.
Addressing journalists a few weeks ago, the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Mrs. Jean Mensa, said, “The voter’s registration exercise will afford Ghanaians who have attained the age of 18 years, since the last registration of 2020 and others who are more than 18 years, but for various reasons couldn’t register during the 2020 registration exercise.
“The EC will embark on voter’s registration in all 268 district offices of the Commission. The exercise will be held from September 12 to October 2.”
Encouraging his constituents to participate in the exercise, the MP said “As per the instructions and directives of the electoral commission chairperson, I strongly encourage all my constituents to actively participate in the upcoming registration exercise.
