Background
The Commission last week announced that it will hold a planning meeting with all its directors and deputy directors across the country from April 24 to 29 at Prampram.
The planned meeting which has been criticized, the EC explained, seeks to afford its officials prepare and plan for the voters’ registration exercise which has already been suspended indefinitely due to the pandemic.
