Speaking to Citi News on Monday, March 2, the EC’s Director of Research, Fred Tetteh, said all necessary measures have been put in place to ensure a credible election. The Commission also cautioned against unlawful acts, particularly vote-buying, warning that any proven case of electoral malpractice would attract sanctions.
“This by-election, which is a parliamentary type of election, is first-past-the-post. So, one vote can make a difference, so when it is proven that a fraudulent activity took place, then the commission will make a decision,” he said.
Security personnel have been deployed to polling stations across the constituency to maintain law and order throughout the voting process.
