Former Minister of Health, Mr Alex Segbefia, had commended registration officials at the various centres in Tadzewu and the surrounding communities for the orderly manner in which they are going about their task.
He also praised eligible persons at the centres for their decent conduct at the centres.
He told the Ghanaian Times after going through the registration procedures in Tadzewu earlier this week that there was ample evidence of people wearing face masks and also observing social distancing.
“You can see that the chairs are well spaced out,” he added.
However, Mr Segbefia expressed misgivings over the use of benches at “one of the centres,” saying the benches did not allow adequate spacing between those waiting to register.
He said it would be more appropriate for chairs only to be used at the centres and not benches.
Mr Segbefia entreated eligible persons in the area to register and turn up at polling centres on December 7, to cast their votes.

THE SPIRIT OF THE LAW IS THAT ALL GHANAIAN ELIGIBLE VOTERS BE REGISTERED. THERE IS NO BETTER PLACE TO DETERMINE THE THE AGE, NATIONALITY AND MENTAL CAPABILITY OF VOTERS THAN IN THE SCHOOLS. WITH THE HELP OF SCHOOL AUTHORITIES THE REGISTRATION IN THE SCHOOLS CANNOT BE WRONG ABOUT THE AGE AND NATIONALITY WHICH ARE PARAMOUNT REQUIREMENT FOR THE REGISTRATION. FOR NDC TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE SCHOOL REGISTRATION MAKES THEM ANTI-DEMOCRATIC, MISCHIEVOUS AND DUMB.
THE REGISTRATION IS SMOOTH AND BEAUTIFUL IN MANY PLACES EXCEPT AT KASOA AND FEW PLACES IN ACCRA. MAY BE BECAUSE OF THE COVID-19 AND EXCEPT THE VIOLATION OF ITS PROTOCOL, THIS REGISTRATION IS THE BEST IN THE NATION. REGISTRATION IN THE SCHOOLS WAS VERY INGENIOUS AND PRAGMATIC. THE PROTEST OF NDC AGAINST THAT PRACTICE MAKES THEM ANTI-INNOVATIVE AND NON REALISTIC. THEY WRONGLY RESORT THE LETTER OF THE LAW AND APPLY IT WITHOUT DISCERNING THE SPIRIT OF THE LAW.
