The Electoral Commission has warned parliamentary candidates and operatives of political parties to desist from transporting applicants to the registration centres.
According to Dr Eric Bossman Asare, Deputy Chair in charge of Coporate Services, the political parties know the people they are bussing are not residents of the electoral areas where they want to register.
He also asked operatives of political parties to stop fronting for people who were not Ghanaians adding, "the Commission needs the support of all our stakeholders to compile a clean register".
He said this at the "Let the Citizen Know" press briefing in Accra on Monday.

very tsuupid guy! If they do how would you stop it? That is why the right-thinking CSOs advised you against doing this new register because you were ill-prepared for it. This new register is even going to be more unreliable than the old one! It is fraught with so many loopholes. Non-Ghanaians have the Ghana Card(it is more an Ecowas card than it proves Ghanaian Citizenship) and they are using it to register. This time the only thing is that the irregularities favour the ruling party and that is why they are hell-bent on carrying it out even at the peril of Ghanaians' lives. This country is a sham and we have allowed these two parties to destroy Ghana. How can it be acceptable that a deputy CEO of Masloc has used state resources to bribe delegates to vote for her in the just concluded primaries and you have her party members supporting her? Where on earth is this even acceptable if not in Ghana! This is sickening!
