Eligible registrants living far from their district registration centers are facing significant challenges in reaching these centers.

Many report lacking the means to travel such distances.

At the South Tongu EC district registration center, the situation was notably quiet when our news team visited. Despite it being past 10:00am, no eligible voters had arrived. South Tongu comprises 40 electoral areas, many of which are located far from the registration center.

During our visit to several electoral areas, starting with Amedome, we met 21-year-old Kwaku Semordzi, who lives approximately 35 kilometers away from the registration center. Kwaku has been unable to register due to financial difficulties.

This issue was echoed in other communities, including Kesevir, Agbakope, Agave Afedome, Dokplame, and Amedome.

Additionally, individuals from the diaspora who traveled to Ghana to register shared similar concerns.

In other registration centers, such as Ho and Ketu South, numerous registrants have faced significant challenges, with some giving up on the process entirely. At the Ho registration center, over 100 people have been challenged, while in Ketu South, more than one thousand registrants are required to face the review committee to justify their eligibility for a voter identification card.

Dzifa Abla Gomashie, Member of Parliament for Ketu South, claims this is part of a plan by the ruling government (NPP) and the EC to frustrate strongholds of the NDC. She added that, despite the EC extending the registration process by two days, many eligible registrants might still be unable to register.

There is a strong desire among many eligible registrants, who cannot travel to the registration centers due to financial constraints, for the registration process to be brought closer to their electoral areas.
