USAG polls cancelled as executives fail to print ballot papers
Reports indicate that the police are in discussions with the USAG executives and the election management team to determine whether to reschedule the elections, as printing the ballot papers today would push the voting process late into the night if it were to proceed.
In an attempt to resolve the issue, the regional police commander agreed to a proposal by some members of the election management team to use existing ballot papers and emboss them with the stamp of the Electoral Commission for authentication. However, this suggestion was rejected by the head of the election team, Emmanuel Osei Karikari, popularly known as Karibrain.
This development has left the various candidates and their supporters feeling disappointed and confused.
