In spite of over 7,000 recorded cases of infection in Ghana, the EC says it will commence the new registration in June. Convener of the group and founder of the Liberal Party of Ghana, Kofi Akpaloo, said the nation must learn to move on with life even in the wake of the pandemic. COVID-19 should not stop me and should not stop you from moving forward in life. That is why the EC is promising that they are going to make sure we follow the social-distancing protocols,” Mr Akpaloo told Class News. The presidential hopeful also urged the NDC and other political parties opposing the compilation of the new electoral roll to rather support the commission to create a more credible register that will produce credible election results.
