The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced plans to print additional ballot papers for five constituencies in the Volta Region; Keta, Ketu North, Ho Central, Hohoe, and Ho West.

According to the Commission, Acts Commercials, a printing house in Accra, will handle the printing of both Presidential and Parliamentary ballot papers for these constituencies.

The EC explained that this development is due to a shortage of ballot papers in the affected areas.

EC’s Deputy Chairman of Operations, Samuel Tettey, in a communique stated that to ensure transparency, representatives of all political parties and independent presidential candidates will be present during the printing process.

The Commission reaffirmed its commitment to conducting a credible and transparent electoral process.

"The Electoral Commission has identified some shortfalls in the Presidential and Parliamentary ballot papers for the Keta, Ketu North, Ho Central, Hohoe, and Ho West constituencies.

“These shortfalls will be addressed by printing additional ballot papers at Acts Commercials. Political parties and independent presidential candidates are encouraged to provide two representatives each to observe the printing process on Friday, November 29, 2024, at 10:00 a.m. at the Acts Commercials Printing House in Accra," parts of the communique read.
