Deputy Central Regional Minister, Mr Aquinas Tawiah Quansah, has appealed to aspiring parliamentarians to desist from engaging in activities that could undermine the success of the biometric registration exercise.

Mr Quansah, the Member of Parliament for Mfantseman West, said most of the misunderstandings at some registration centres were the making of aspiring candidates who wanted to use any means to win the elections.

He said, recruiting of people from other places to register and registration of minors, was the cause of confusion at some of the centres as well as encouraging multiple registrations.

The Deputy Regional Minister said if all candidates could be fair and sincere in their dealings, the registration exercise could go on smoothly.

Mr Quansah, who was speaking at a fund-raising forum at Ekurabadze near Anomabo, appealed to Ghanaians to make the registration exercise and the general election in December peaceful.

He said politics was about development and appealed to the youth not to allow politicians to misuse them to create chaos during the registration and the voting.

“Since politics is about development, we can do better to develop our country if we remain united and ready to support any project allocated to our communities,” the MP said.

Mr Henry Kweku Hayfron, Mfantseman Municipal Chief Executive, advised the people to make education of their children a priority and expressed concern about how some parents had abandoned their responsibilities, compelling their children to fend for themselves.

Mr Kwesi Rockson, Ekurabadze Development Committee Chairman, appealed to the government to rehabilitate the road leading to the town, construction of a drainage system to check erosion and conversion of an abandoned day care centre into a clinic.**
