Minors and aliens <\/strong><\/p>\nAlbert Arhin noted that \u201cif you visit the Electoral Commission there is a catalogue of minors who have been appearing on the voters\u2019 register. If any political party is serious, they will tell you that when they met at IPAC this was shown to them.\u201d<\/p>\n
He insisted that \u201cthey are the same political parties who put these minors there, if it is aliens, I will say that, it is these same people, who normally arrange for these aliens there. All of us would have to be sincere so that this thing is nipped in the bud. It is for everybody in this country to realize that it is bad and has to be stopped.\u201d<\/p>\n
Clean or replace voters register<\/strong><\/p>\nThe National Coordinator of CODEO again observed that it would be better to either clean or compile a new voters register\u00a0but lamented apathy on the part of citizens that he said will lead to ineffectiveness of the exercise.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat I know is that you can clean the voters register but from the past, the experience I have realised is that any time a register is being cleaned and citizens are called to participate the participation has been minimal. Sometimes you will find that some names in some regions are sent to another regions. If these things have been taken seriously, I\u2019m not sure we would have been getting to where we are now.\u00a0 10% and 20% attendance. So I think we as a nation we have contributed to this mess we are in now. So it\u2019s either a cleaning or a replacement.\u201d<\/p>\n
