Axim (W/R), Dec, 7 GNA- Some voters at the Evalue Gwira Constituency in the Nzima East District, have appealed to the Electoral Commission (EC) and other stakeholders in future General Election to provide the electorate with benches.

The voters who had joined a long queue to cast their votes made the appeal through the media.
