Mr Sammi Awuku, National Organizer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has said that his visit to some registration centers shows that many Ghanaians are ready to register and obtain a voter’s identification card in order to vote come December 7, 2020.

“I visited not less than eight centers today; from Maajor in the Adenta area down to Ayawaso West Wuogon and to Mamobi in the Ayawaso North and down to the Alajo area in the Ayawaso Central Mosque area. Throughout some of the major registration centers, the numbers are very overwhelming”, he told Accra-based Joy FM in an interview monitored by MyNewsGh.com.

“Clearly it shows that the Ghanaian people are ready to register for a new voters’ ID. What we can do to support them as a political party is to support them with content education that we also need to keep alive”, he stressed.

“I’m worried that if we focus too much on the negativity what we going to do then is to scare people from these centers or not do much to help with the education. The EC is doing its best; I have grave reservations about some of the things I also saw.” He lamented

He urged all to commend the various political parties’ agents for the extra vigilance exhibited at the registration centers.

“Let me commend the agents of these political parties who have kept an eagle eye on the process. Let me also commend the mobilizers and the whispers of the various political parties who moved from house to house to also get supporters and get sympathizers and Ghanaians who haven’t heard of this whole exercise to also throng the place.” He advised.
