Dr. Ankrah noticed that the registration procedure has met challenges, such as technical malfunctions and lengthy wait times, which have frustrated the public and raised concerns about the exercise’s credibility. He urged the Electoral Commission to address these issues as soon as possible and put measures in place to prevent them from occurring again in future elections.

Dr. Ankrah also underlined the need of transparency and accountability in the electoral process, urging the Electoral Commission to be open to public criticism and concerns.

The businessman asked all stakeholders, including political parties, civil society organisations, and the media, to closely monitor and guarantee the registration process is fair and transparent.

Dr. Ankrah advised the EC to examine previous failures, carefully evaluate public concerns, and take decisive action to ensure a smooth and trustworthy registration process.

He believes that by doing so, the Commission will be able to sustain Ghanaians’ faith and confidence in the voting system while also helping to enhance democracy in the country.

Dr. Sam Ankrah highlighted concerns about the accuracy of the registration data obtained thus far. He emphasized the importance of ensuring the correctness and dependability of data collected throughout the registration process in order to maintain the integrity of the voting system.

Dr. Ankrah underlined that inaccuracies in registration data could have serious ramifications for the election process, such as voter exclusion or electoral manipulation. He urged the Electoral Commission to take steps to authenticate and validate registration data in order to ensure its accuracy and completeness.

Additionally, Dr. Ankrah emphasized the importance of transparency and accountability in the process of acquiring registration data. He encouraged the Electoral Commission to give the public access to the data so that it could be analyzed and validated.
