The Ghana Police Service has cautioned the general public to desist from any action that will violate the law in the ongoing limited voter registration exercise across the country.
This comes after several incidents of violence have occurred in some centres in some parts of the country, which have led to some persons sustaining injuries.
In a statement released on Sunday, May 12, the Police condemned such violent acts, noting that it had already made some arrests.
“We condemn the unfortunate incidents in some registration centres including Cape Coast, Central Region, Kukuom, Ahafo Region and Adugyama, Ashanti Region. Police have made a number of arrests as investigations continue,” part of the statement read.
The Police, therefore, reminded the public to adhere to the laws that govern the registration process, warning that anyone found flouting the law will be dealt with.
“It is in this regard that we would like to caution the public to exercise maximum restraint and act in accordance with the laws governing the registration process.
“Police will not tolerate any disregard of the law and any persons who engage in such acts shall be dealt with accordingly.”
