This register, which includes the names of all eligible voters, plays a critical role in ensuring the transparency and credibility of the electoral process.
Addressing representatives of political parties at a gathering in Accra on Wednesday, 6 November, EC Chairperson Jean Mensa reiterated the importance of this milestone, emphasising the Commission's commitment to fair and credible elections. "At the meeting of IPAC on the 15th of October, we indicated that this presentation would be made to you at the end of the first week of November," Mensa explained. "However, with the help of God, we have been able to do that two days before the 8th which signifies the end of the first week of November." Mensa further revealed that after the exhibition of the revised Provisional Voters Register (PVR), the Commission addressed a total of 158 issues raised by voters across the country.
She reassured stakeholders that all concerns had been resolved and that the final voters' register was in optimal condition to support a "credible, transparent, fair, peaceful, and glorious election" on 7 December.
A statement signed by Samuel Tettey, Deputy Chairman of Operations at the EC, confirmed the Commission's preparedness for a free, fair, and transparent electoral process. "The soft copies which were presented to the Political Parties on external hard drives contained the Valid Voters Register, the Exceptions List, the Multiples List, the Transferred Voters List, the Absent Voters List, the Manual Verification List, the Proxy Voters List and the Special Voters List," the statement outlined.
