Registration delays in Tumu due to intermittent lights out. Intermittent power supply compelled the Electoral Commission to start the registration exercise of persons who turned 18 years, four hours behind schedule in Tumu in the Sissala East Municipality.
Mr Charles Oteng Bonsra, the Sissala East Municipal Electoral Officer told the GNA that by 07:00 am the commission had set up ready to start the process but due light off the exercise could not start as scheduled.
Mr Bonsra said the first successful person registered around 11:30 am because the router connected to the computer also depended on the electricity to function, but the frequent outage made it slow.
He said about 15:00 hours about 21 persons were able register and who were mostly students.
Mr Bonsra said he advised students against registering if they are not of age.
He revealed that four electoral areas that are hard to reach will get mobile registers on services including Wellembele, Bawiesebelle, Santijan and Kwapun electoral areas, which will start from 9th to 16th May 2024.
Agents of both the NPP and the NDC as well as security personnel and CODEO were at the centre.
