Politics of Wednesday, 17 June 2020Source: Peace FMJust delete the one million unqualified names, no need for new voters register - Kwesi Pratt to EC bossJean Mensa, EC ChairSeasoned journalist, Kwesi Pratt is unconvinced about the reasons given by EC Chairperson, Jean Mensa, to support the compilation of a new voters' register. The Electoral Commission has argued there are some defects in the current register which render it invalid for the 2020 general elections. The Commission has therefore scheduled Tuesday, June 30, 2020 to begin a mass registration exercise aimed at compiling a new voters' register. The exercise which demands participants to use only the Ghana card and passport to register their names, according to the EC, will help expunge all unqualified names from the register. If you know 1 million names in the register, how does that become reason for compiling a new voters' register because all you have to do is to take the names off and we have a clean register," he stressed.
