The Electoral Commission's ongoing Voter Exhibition exercise got-off slowly in the Krachi East Constituency of the Oti Region due to the inadequate publicity efforts. A visit to some exhibition centres by the Ghana News Agency (GNA) saw the exercise started slowly at Kwame-Akura East, Dambai Health Centre, Lapaz Park, Banka, Anyabour No2, KpareKpare, Togbe-kope, Nwane, Kpelema and Dormabin, which recorded low turnout for both day one and two. Mr Manasseh Konja, the exhibition officer at KpareKpare centre, told the GNA that out of 500 eligible voters on the register, only five voters had checked their names. He said the voter exhibition was the bedrock of Ghana's democracy and if the citizens were disinterested, then that was a cause of worry. 'The exercise needs more publicity because it appears people are not aware, they should come and give us work, we sat here yesterday and today doing almost nothing,' he said. Mr Shadrach Kwabena attributed the situation to low publicity on the part of stakeholders and said more needed to be done to whip up public interest in the general election. He suggested that the National Commission for Civic Education (NCCE) and the Information Services Department, for instance, were expected to maximize public awareness on the important exercise, which would end on August 27, 2024. Mr James Anane Kinagwin, the Apostle of Christian Assembly Church, called for more education on the exercise to encourage people to turn out in their numbers to check their particulars before it ends. All the centers visited had the National Election Security Taskforce present monitoring the process. Source: Ghana News Agency
