Abetifi (E/R), Sept. 26, GNA – There was low voter turn out for the district level elections at most of the polling centres visited by the Ghana News Agency (GNA) in the Kwahu West and Kwahu South districts on Tuesday.
Unlike the long queues found during presidential and parliamentary elections, this was not so this time as discovered at Nkawkaw, Atibie, Mpraeso, Obomeng, Nkwatia and Abetifi where only between 10 and 140 voters had cast their votes as at 11:30.
The presiding officers at some of the centres complained that voting materials were delivered late delaying the beginning of voting in most centres until about 08:30 hours.
Some members of the electorate the GNA spoke to in the towns said they had lost interest in the district level elections since their areas had not benefited from development projects during the tenure of previous assembly members and so would not waste their time to vote.
