A similar situation happened in Agona Swedru in the Central Region, where two police officers have been turned away because their names were not on the list.

Many people have raised questions about what might happen during the general elections on December 7 which is barely a week away.

But commenting on the matter, Eric Dzapkasu, the head of Communication at the EC said his outfit compiled the special voters list based on the information it received from the various institutions.

According to him, the data input could be the problem and the names may have been switched.

He pleaded with aggrieved parties to visit the District offices of the EC for now, while investigations continue on the way forward.
