Investigations into the background of some officials engaged by the Electoral Commission (EC), in the December 7, elections would be completed on December 25, Mr Michael Boadu, Cape Coast Municipal Director of the EC, told the GNA on Thursday.
He said if allegations that the officials are members of NPP were found to be true, they would be dismissed.
The Central Region Executive of the NDC alleged at a news conference on December 15, in Cape Coast, that the EC deliberately engaged NPP activists as Presiding Officers and Polling Assistants against the Electoral Law.
The EC denied the accusation but instituted investigations into their background.
Mr Boadu said 938 students among others have applied to transfer their votes because they would be on holidays during the December 28 presidential run-off.
He said the needed information about them would be faxed to the regions and districts of their choice for the issuance of certificates.
The EC official said, “all is about set for the presidential run-off. We have ballot boxes and other voting materials but yet to receive ballot papers and seals for the boxes”.
