Eric Adjei, a member of the Communication team of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), has sworn that the compilation of the New Voters' register will not be held.
The NDC and the Inter-Party Resistance Against New Voters' Register (IPRAN) have been consistently opposed to the idea of compiling a new voters' register.
Aside their claim that the EC wants to rig the 2020 elections in favor of the incumbent government, they also argue the register, in its current form, is credible to be used for a general election so long as it has been used for other electoral exercises.
This notwithstanding, the Electoral Commission (EC) has announced the registration exercise will commence in the middle of June this year.
The exercise is aimed at compiling a new voters' register for the 2020 general elections and subsequent Presidential and Parliamentary elections in the country.
The EC argues there is the need for a new register to replace the current one because the current register is bloated and therefore compiling a new voters' register will help in eliminating unqualified names to ensure credible elections.
Eric Adjei contributing to a panel discussion on Peace FM 'Platform' programme, hosted by Nana Yaw Kesseh openly bragged: There will be no mass registration in this country; there will be no mass registration in Ghana take it from me…mark it on the wall; there will be no mass registration to compile a new register; we are using the existing register for the 2020 elections."

I like how you brag but sorry you’re just an ordinary party propagandist which your words will not wash or hold water. Mass registration is not force so leave the sanne Ghanaians to go and register
Is that going to stop the elections ? I can't get these people what at all is in the old register that they are so frustrated and anxiety set in? Whether mass or low turn out there will be a register for the elections and everyone knows ndc are the minority so who cares? Your 1.5million are not going to register so definitely ndc will get low turn out and that figure will show the real and authentic voters in Ghana ! We cant have a country of 30 million with 2/3 as voters so definitely you will see your ghost names absent as low turn out ! Thank God Ghana will see the real number who are supposed to vote ! Thank you Lady Jean Mensa for standing firm for your country and doing the best for your country whatever the enemies of Ghana will plot against you they will fail because the spirits and people of Ghana are all behind you and the enemies mischievous machinations will fail! No weapon formed against you will stand in JESUS NAME! Jesus is the TRUTH and the WAY and lies can never survive !
