“As at the close of work yesterday [Monday], out of the 56,772 deleted, 14,801 have re-registered. Those who are not coming, we will be expecting them to come in their numbers so that we can get them re-registered [in order] that they can vote but they are not coming as we expected them to come,” he said

“The least we can do under this circumstance is to reach out to them, intensify the publicity, help them to know that the exercise is ongoing so they should come back and re-register,” he added
Speaking on an Accra-based Citi FM Mr. Dzakpasu stated that the commission has put in the necessary measures to get individuals whose names were deleted from the voter’s register to re-register before the exercise ends.

“Our publicity vans are all over, the National Commission on Civic Education (NCCE) is on the ground, we have involved the churches and the community leaders and traditional rulers and in some areas, they have deployed gong-gong beaters to announce to the community so that they come out and take part in the re-registration as well as the exhibition exercise,” Mr Dzakpasu stated
