The Electoral Commission (EC) in the Hohoe Municipality of the Volta region has indicated its readiness ahead of the 2024 limited voter registration in the Municipality.
The registration, which begins on Tuesday, May 7 and ends on Monday, May 27, 2024, will be held daily, including weekends, from 0700 hours to 1800 hours.
Mr. Enoch Danso Agyekum, Hohoe Municipal Electoral Officer, disclosed to the Ghana News Agency (GNA) that the exercise would be held at the office of the Commission in the Municipality as well as a mobile registration team at Wli and Alavanyo.
He said the mobile team would be stationed at the Alavanyo Senior High Technical School from May 10 to May 12 and then move to Wli Todzi from May 13 to May 14, 2024.
Mr. Agyekum said eligible voters who were unable to be captured by the mobile team and would want to register must come to the office of the Commission.
He said there were criteria for eligible voters who would want to obtain a voter identity card, including being a Ghanaian, of sound mind, a resident of the area intended to register and producing a form of identity card such as the ECOWAS identity card (Ghana Card) or passport, or having two people as guarantors.
Mr. Agyekum noted that when a person got challenged on grounds against the criteria, they would be allowed to go through the process, but their voter cards would be withheld until their case was heard and dealt with by a committee whose determination may release the card or otherwise.
