Dumelo wants voting at GIMPA polling center halted over absence of indelible ink
National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) parliamentary candidate for the Ayawaso West Wuogon, John Dumelo is demanding a halt of the voting process at the GIMPA polling center one due to the absence of indelible ink.
He says the process could be marred if voters are not made to use the indelible ink before casting their ballot.
“I am disappointed in the process. We do not have any indelible ink here, and they are allowing people to vote, which is wrong”.
“I suggest that they stop the whole process and let them get the ink before they continue. The indelible ink is the surest way to know that one has voted or not?” he said
