Mr Osei Bonsu Appiah–Gyasi, Electoral Officer at the Gushegu Municipality, said the training, which was held within two days it was to build their capacities to ensure they had the opportunity to exercise their civic rights by easily identifying and voting for the candidates of their choice on election day.
