Voting is going on peacefully in almost all the polling centres in the Kwahu-West Municipality, Kwahu South and Kwahu East districts. Less than half of registered voters had cast their votes at the 22 polling centres visited in the Nkawkaw, Mpraeso and Abetifi constituencies as at 1200 hours and there were no long queens at the polling centres as compared to the December 7 election. Agents of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Party (NDC) and security personnel were at the polling centres to monitor the elections.
The Chief of Obo and Nifahene of Kwahu Traditional area, Nana Yeboah Afari Buagyan II, was among the first people to cast their votes at the Obo Post Office polling centre where 161 people had cast their votes out of 635 registered voters as at 0940 hours. He advised all registered voters in the area to go and cast their votes and be prepared to accept the result of the election and support which ever candidate who will win the election to ensure peace and stability in the country. Some of the electorates attributed the absence of long queues to the less number of candidates contesting the election as against the December 07 election.
