The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced that the voter registration process for individuals who have turned 18 will begin from September 12 to October 2, 2023.
The registration will take place at all 268 district offices nationwide. During this period, the EC will also provide the option for replacing a voter’s ID card at a fee of GHC10.
The announcement was made during a press conference named ‘Let the Citizen Know’ held in Accra.
Jean Mensa, the Chairperson of the Electoral Commission, addressed the media, stating that the voter’s registration exercise aims to include Ghanaians who have attained the age of 18 since the last registration in 2020.
It will also cater to those older than 18 who couldn’t register in 2020 due to various reasons.
Jean Mensa explained, “The EC will conduct the voter’s registration across all 268 district offices of the Commission.
