The Electoral Commission (EC) has announced that it will conduct the Nkoranza North and South District Level Elections on Tuesday, May 13, 2025, in line with the District Level Elections Regulations, 2015 (C.I. 89).
In a statement signed by the Commission's chairperson, Jean Mensa on Wednesday, March 12, the elections follow the expiration of the term of Assembly and Unit Committee Members.
Additionally, the Commission will hold by-elections on the same day to fill vacant positions resulting from the death or resignation of some Assembly Members.
The statement noted that aspiring candidates can obtain nomination forms free of charge from the District Offices of the Electoral Commission or download them from the EC’s official website (www.ec.gov.gh).
"Completed Nomination Forms must be delivered in quadruplicate by the Candidate personally or by the Proposer or Seconder together with two copies of a recent bust sized photograph against a RED background to the Returning Officer of the Electoral Area for which the Candidate seeks election from Tuesday, 1st April to Friday, 4th April, 2025, between the hours of 9 am and 12 pm and 2 pm to 5 pm each day.
"The Nomination Forms for the District Level Elections must be witnessed by the signature or mark of a Proposer and a Seconder and supported by eighteen (18) other persons who are resident and registered voters in the Electoral Area," part of the statement read.
The Commission stated that the nomination forms for the Unit Committee Elections must be witnessed by the signature or mark of a Proposer and a Seconder and supported by eight other persons who are resident and registered voters in the Electoral Area.
"All enquiries related to these Elections should be addressed to the Returning Officer at the District Office of the Commission," it added.
