Earlier in the morning media reports suggested that the Police in Kumasi had upon a tip-off seized three bags stuffed with materials reported to be thumb-printed presidential ballot papers found at the Madison Hotel at TUC in the Ashanti Regional capital.

The report suggested that all the ballot papers had thumb prints for President John Mahama, the Presidential Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).

But COP Kofi Boakye said the ballot papers retrieved had no serial numbers, therefore, making them fake.

Addressing the media in Kumasi this morning COP Kofi Boakye said the regional EC Director “came saying it was not part of the materials which means they are fake.”
