The Electoral Commission (EC) will conduct a mop-up voter registration exercise from August 1 to August 3, 2024.
This exercise aims to provide an opportunity for individuals who turned 18 after the limited voter registration period, as well as those who missed the previous registration, to be included in the voter register.
In addition to the mop-up registration, the commission has announced a voter exhibition from August 20 to August 27.
This exhibition will allow registered voters to verify their details and make necessary corrections ahead of the elections.
The Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, Jean Mensa, speaking a press conference on Monday, July 8, shared this information during a visit from the Election Security Taskforce.
“I would like to put on record that the mop-up of the voter registration exercise will take place from August 1–3, 2024, and it is to afford persons who turned 18 after May 29 or persons who have not previously registered the opportunity to get onto our register; this goes to persons who are eligible,” she disclosed.
The taskforce, led by Inspector General of Police Dr. George Akuffu Dampare, debriefed the commission on the election security performance in the first half of the year.
The electoral management body emphasised the importance of these exercises in ensuring a comprehensive and accurate voter register, underscoring its commitment to facilitating a fair and transparent electoral process.
