The Deputy Chairman of the Electoral Commission (EC) in charge of Corporate Services, Dr Bossman Asare, has announced the implementation of a new "liveliness check" feature in the verification process of the voters transfer.
According to him, this feature is designed to verify that the biometric data being captured is from a live person rather than from a fake source.
Speaking during a press briefing on September 2, he said, “This feature is to ensure that the biometric data being captured is from a live, present human being and not from a spoofed source, such as a photograph, which is what was done in this case.”
According to the Deputy Chairman of the EC, the introduction of the liveliness check aims to eliminate instances of biometric spoofing and enhance the overall reliability of the verification process.
In addition,he stated that the EC will not tolerate any electoral malpractices and will hold both permanent and temporary officers accountable if found involved in any wrongdoing.
“The EC will not shield any of its Officers (both permanent and temporary) found complicit in any electoral malpractices. The Commission wishes to assure the Public that, after the Exhibition Exercise, the Final Voters Register that will be produced will be robust and credible,” he said.
