A Ghana Card would be necessary in order to cast a ballot in the election of 2024, according to the Deputy Chairman of the Electoral Commission (EC) in charge of Corporate Services, who has advised potential voters to get one.

Dr. Bossman Asare stated in an interview on The Pulse on Wednesday that a person cannot register to vote without a Ghana Card.

He claimed that the Ghana Card, which has nearly 17 million Ghanaians registered for it, has had an impact on our society.

“Commission made the decision that now allows us to have the Ghana Card as the primary criteria in partnership with our partners.

“This implies that as soon as you obtain your Ghana Card with a continuous registration, all you have to do is visit our district office in your area, register, and your name will appear on the list.

For this reason, he used the opportunity to encourage citizens between the ages of 15 to 18 to register for their Ghana Card “so that as soon as you turn 18 then you present it to the registration officer then instantly you are going to be registered.”
