Foreigners Attempting To Register For 2020 Elections condemned by EC

 

 

The Electoral Commission is condemning attempts by foreigners to register in the ongoing voter registration exercise. In a statement dated July 7, 2020 and signed by its Acting Director of Public Affairs, Sylvia Annoh, the

 

Commission reminded the general public that it is an offence for non Ghanaians to register as voters in the exercise. It said “C.I 91 explicitly stated that non Ghanaian citizens are not entitled to register as voters

 

 

on our electoral roll.” The Commission warned that “non Ghanaians who are caught in the act will each be liable to pay a hefty fine or serve a two year term of imprisonment or even both.”
