Voters register: Opposition parties hit Kumasi streets with ‘Yenpini’ demo

The main opposition National Democratic Congress(NDC) and other parties against the compilation of new voters register by the Electoral Commission ahead of the December general elections are demonstrating in Kumasi in the Ashanti region today.

This comes barely a fortnight after the first protest held in Tamale in the Northern region.

The parties maintain that a new register is a waste of taxpayers’ money and could also create tension since the election is close.

But the Electoral Commission, insists it will compile the register despite the disagreement by the parties and civil society organizations.
