The police administration is to deploy over 35,000 personnel to provide security during the District Assembly elections scheduled for December 28, 2010. The move, according to the Director of Police Public Relations Superintendent Kwesi Ofori, is to create the atmosphere for a peaceful election. He told Joy News that national, regional and district task forces will monitor closely activities at all election hot spots in the country. According to him, the police having been taken through the rudiments of election policing by the Electoral Commission are ready to deliver a clean and peaceful election. He appealed to voters to abide by the rules of the election. Meanwhile the Electoral Commission has set its ground rules for the impending elections. Director of Communications, Christian Owusu Pary says prospective voters must vacate the voting areas once they finish casting their votes. He said no campaign T-shirts of candidates will allowed on voting day. "Everybody who goes to the polling station on polling day must comport himself; go with his ID card; join the queue until it is his turn to vote," he counseled, adding that the EC will inspect prospective voters to ensure they had not voted already before allowing them to cast the ballot. Asked which areas would not take part in the elections, Mr Pary said disagreement over the name of an electoral area in the Upper East Region means there will be no elections there; none at all in the Lower Manya District following a dispute over electoral areas; and four electoral areas in the Ledzorkuku sub-metro of the Accra Metro will also be exempted.
