This initiative, aimed at educating Ghanaians on the electoral process, provides accessible information in Ga, Nzema, Hausa, Dagbani, Ewe, and Twi, ensuring that even those in remote areas have a clear understanding of the electoral process.
The Commission's approach aligns with its constitutional mandate under Article 45(d) of the 1992 Constitution, which requires it "to educate the people on the electoral process and its purpose." As part of this public education campaign, the EC has produced a series of short, informative videos illustrating the various stages of Election Day activities, from the use of transparent ballot boxes to the final counting of votes.
These videos aim to clarify the electoral process, combat misinformation, and reinforce public trust.
