The Electoral Commission (EC) has introduced stringent measures to ensure it provides accurate information to the public.
By so doing, the EC aims to ensure the accuracy of the information disseminated to the public to help build trust in the discharge of its duties.
The Deputy Commissioner in charge of Operations at the EC, Samuel Tetteh, made this announcement at a news conference on Tuesday, May 21.
He emphasised that the new stringent methods in infographic creation are part of the EC's commitment to reliability and transparency.
The EC Deputy Commissioner stated that the electoral management body is dedicated to building trust and confidence among Ghanaians and its key stakeholders.
According to him, prioritising accuracy and transparency, the EC hopes to strengthen its relationship with the public and ensure that all disseminated information is trustworthy and credible.
"The commission has since made changes to the team charged with the responsibility of preparing the infographics."
“Additionally, we have put in place more rigorous methods in the preparation of the infographics to ensure that what is churned to the public is accurate.”
He also apologised to political parties, stakeholders, and the public for the errors in the infographics published during the first 11 days of the registration exercise.
This followed the identification of inaccuracies in some of the figures the commission had released regarding registered voters.
