Ghana's youthful population is a defining feature of its demographic landscape.
Approximately 57% of the population is under the age of 25, with young people constituting close to 62% of the voting population.
In the 2020 general elections, of the 17 million registered voters, around 9.4 million were aged between 18 and 35, including over 2.6 million first-time voters.
However, first-time voters often face challenges stemming from a lack of understanding of the voting process, which can lead to mistakes at the polls.
