“I’d like to appeal to all qualified persons who haven’t registered yet to go to their various registration centers and register because today happens to be the last day, even though there’s a mop-up exercise on 8th & 9th.

“Initially, we decided to do a blanket mop-up but knowing the situation on the ground and the fact the numbers are diminishing, we decided to do it at the district offices,” She told sit-in host Lantam Papanko. 

At least 15.1 million Ghanaian voters have been registered as of Saturday, August 1, 2020.

The figure means that the EC has already crossed its projected 15 million mark.

This will account for the significant portion of the projected 17 million figure of Ghanaians currently over the age of 18.
