The ongoing 2024 elections have witnessed reports of missing names and verification challenges at various polling stations nationwide.
The development has caused frustration among voters and delays in the voting process.
At some centres, registered voters found their names missing from the electoral roll.
For example, confusion erupted at the Old Library polling station in the Ledzokuku Constituency in the Greater Accra Region, over alleged missing names.
Similar issues were reported in the Ablekuma Central Constituency, raising concerns about the accuracy of the voter register, which was expected to undergo thorough verification ahead of the elections.
In other areas, such as Tamale Central and Wulensi, biometric verification devices encouraged some challenges, halting the voting process temporarily.
Not a single vote has been cast at the Faith Academy polling station in the Ledzokuku Constituency due to malfunctioning Biometric Verification Devices.
The delays have sparked tensions among affected voters with some fearing disenfranchisement.
However, polling officials have urged calm and reassured voters that efforts are underway to address these issues promptly.
