The Akwatia Constituency is set to witness an unprecedented security presence ahead of its crucial parliamentary by-election on September 2, 2025.

More than 5,000 security personnel will be deployed to ensure a peaceful, transparent and intimidation-free electoral process following the untimely passing of the constituency's parliamentary candidate, Ernest Kumi.

According to directives from the security high command, the massive deployment aims to guarantee that every voter can safely cast their ballot and leave polling stations in peace.

An exclusive investigation by GhanaWeb journalist Eric Obeng Boateng sheds light on the scale of the operation.
