This, to me, is intolerable, considering the fact that in the other regions I have visited and received reports, the number of offline registration centers averages between 4 and 5\u201d, he sated. <\/p>\n<p>Mr. Boadu added that another challenge that greeted him was the registration of minors and non-Ghanaians particularly Togolese contrary to the nation\u2019s electoral laws. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.ghanamma.com\/2019\/07\/npp.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-238089\"  \/><\/figure>\n<p>He however made the point that his party agents have been up and doing in challenging these unlawful registrations using the due process, and fortunately, most of these challenge claims have been upheld by the district challenge review committee. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cBeyond that, as I indicated, the process has been largely smooth and I commend our party agents, polling station as well as constituency and regional executives of the party in the Volta region for their extreme vigilance in the exercise and approaching same with all the seriousness that it deserves\u201d, the NPP scribe intimated.<\/p>\n<p>Finally, Mr. Boadu told reporters that the NPP\u2019s journey to victory 2020 has begun in earnest, and that, the party cannot fail the Ghanaian masses because the alternative still remains scary.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), John Boadu, on Wednesday, July 3, 2019, ended his 2-day tour of the Volta region where he had been visiting the Electoral Commission limited registration centers to monitor the ongoing voter registration exercise.
