A member of the Electoral Commission, Reverend Akua Ofori Boateng, visited the Ayawaso West district office of the EC on May 8, 2024. During her visit, she witnessed technical challenges in the voter registration process firsthand. In response, Rev. Akua Boateng offered a prayer, calling on God to intervene and help resolve the issues that were plaguing the ongoing voter registration exercise.
As party agents gathered around her, she led a heartfelt prayer for the proper functioning of registration machines and connectivity.
In her prayer, Rev. Ofori Boateng said “we pray for the machines that we are using here, we pray for connectivity, we pray that they will work. We pray that they will work throughout the day so that everybody will have the opportunity to register.” Rev Akua ended her prayer by praying for the party agents asking God to be with them. The registration exercise suffered some setbacks on the first day due to erratic power supply and network challenges. Although the situation improved on the second day, later reports indicated that the setback had resurfaced, hence the need for divine intervention.
