Our john mahama the bloated idiotic face man , who calls himself a president of the ndc republic. Such idiots like you give people the chance to insult this man because of your stomach. Your president is an idiot who can't reason for himself. May what you think of others return to you in thousand folds. So called dr laurence who lives in Virginia USA, find work to do, for the friends of JDM is not a sustainable job. You are using that to convince this brainless john mahama who calls himself a president, to send you money from Ghana because you are jobless, your criminality in Virginia is well known within the Ghanaian community, God will forever punish you, and your days are numbered for accountability. MAY GOD NEVER LET YOU PROSPER IN YOUR LIFE AMEN''''''''''''''''''"'"

This decision is about right. It will serve as a good lesson for the future. People usually wait till the last minute in such situations. Sadly, this time the machine has timed them out. Why would we waste resources for people who dilly-dallied and could not register? After all they have opportunities to register in future.

The good thing is that in future people will not wait till the last minute. I knew the the President was right in selecting Charlotte for this sensitive position because she can take the tough but the right decisions. However, I'm sure we can forgive her for the logo blunder.

In fact, they are even lucky that they can take advantage of the continuous voters’ registration facility that the commission would embark on in the near future.

Campus, educational institutes, offices and work place are not addresses anyone can use to register to vote. These student should go back where they came from to register there.
You must have a permanent address before you can register on the national electoral register.
How can a student of a university thinks the campus of a university is he or her address.
Useless EC for not explaining to these students we push to award piece of paper call certificate.
SHAME to our Education.

How stupid can you be??? Why did the EC send registration materials there in the first play if your useless logic that they are not centers is anything to go by. Are you suggesting lecturers and their families living there don't vote? If they do, then certainly there are voting centers there and therefore the students can register and vote there.

The EC must be compelled to register those potential first time voters and failure by the EC to grant the Constitutional and fundamental human rights of these Ghanaian citizens, in the exercise of this sovereign right in a democracy, that is the right to universal adult suffrage and self-determination, as a mandatory requirement in a democracy, the EC and its representatives and assigns active or inactive, must be committed to prison, for acts and conduct tantamount to the usurpation of sovereignty of the state and treason.

This is the only language the EC understands. There is no point in preventing students from voting if and only if they are illegible. Pleas will usually fall on deaf years

What is the near future date. Is before this November 2016 election or after the 2016 election. EC is not making any sense instead of registering these eligible students who can make info choice of who becomes the president of the country , EC chooses to register illiterate people in country side, those that cannot read and write and could be influenced with gift and told who to vote for a particular person without knowing what that person 's policy is all about.EC SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT IN 12 TO 20 REGISTRATIONS STATIONS TO EACH OF THE UNIVERSITIES AND REGISTER ALL ELIGIBLE AGE STUDENTS IN A DAY OR TWO DAYS AND THEN MOVE THE MACHINES TO OTHER COMMUNITIES. KNOWING THE UNIVERSITIES HAVE MORE 18 YEARS OLDS MORE THAN ANY COMMUNITY YOU CAN THINK OF.THIS IS A DELIBERATE ATTEMPT TO DISENFRANCHISED THE LEARNED INSTITUTIONS OF THE COUNTRY TO OUT OUT THE NON PERFORMING SITTING GORVERNMENT.
