The National Peace Council (NPC) branch in the Central Regional has raised concerns over potential electoral violence in nine constituencies ahead of Ghana's December 7 elections.
Among the 23 constituencies in the region, these nine have been flagged as hotspots, with Awutu-Senya-East emerging as the most critical due to its 42 identified flashpoints.
The constituencies identified include Awutu-Senya-East, Effutu, Agona-West, Assin-North, Abura-Asebu-Kwamankese, Cape Coast-North, Twifo-Hemang-Lower-Denkyira, and Upper-Denkyira-West and East.
Security agencies have put these areas under intensified surveillance to ensure swift responses to any signs of unrest.
