The Deputy Chairman of the Electoral Commission (EC) in charge of Corporate Services, Dr. Bossman Asare, has warned prospective voters in Ghana to acquire a Ghana Card since that will be the only requirement for voting in the 2024 election.
In an interview on The Pulse on Wednesday, August 3, 2022, Dr. Bossman said without a Ghana Card, one will not be registered to vote.
“Commission in collaboration with our partners took the decision that now let us have the Ghana Card as the main requirement.
“So what this means is that as soon as you acquire your Ghana Card with a continuous registration, you just go to our district office where you are located then you go and register and your name will be put on the roll of voters,” he said.
According to him, the Ghana Card has made an impact in our society with almost 17 million Ghanaians registered for it hence, his warning.
He howevere encouraged citizens between the ages of 15 to 18 to register for their Ghana Card so that as soon as they turn 18, they present it to the registration officer for an instant registration.
