Mr Wisdom Allai, a Senior Electoral Assistant of the Electoral Commission (EC) in the Volta Region, on Monday, said the pilot electoral registration on Saturday boosted the confidence of stakeholders in the electoral system.
He said the rejection of multiple registrations by the machine excited agents of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) at the Ho Main Lorry Park Centre, with some commending the EC for upgrading the system.
“The exercise was normal and I’m happy the machine rejected multiple registrations, including mine,” Mr Richard Kwadekpo, the Ho Central Chairman, NPP, told the Ghana News Agency.
Mr Allai said majority of the 54 persons who were registered out of the expected 60 also had their doubts and misconceptions about the system cleared.
He told the Ghana News Agency (GNA) all the 40 males and 14 females were registered without any hitches.
Mr Henry Ametefe, the Volta Regional Organiser of the NDC, said he was happy that the system was now simpler, and expressed hope that the main exercise would be successful.
