The Electoral Commission of Ghana has identified discrepancies in some serial numbers on presidential ballot papers for the Berekum West and Berekum East constituencies in the Bono Region.

In Berekum West, the serial numbers on the ballots differ from those on the counterfoil. Specifically, seven out of 100 booklets and one out of 25 booklets have this discrepancy. In Berekum East, there are inconsistent and duplicate serial numbers, affecting three out of 100 booklets, one out of 50 booklets, and one out of 25 booklets. Additionally, two out of 10 booklets have the same serial numbers.

To address this issue, the Electoral Commission will submit the affected ballot papers to the Ghana Publishing Company (Assembly Press) for reprinting. Representatives from political parties and independent presidential candidates have been invited to observe the reprinting process, which is scheduled for Friday, November 29, 2024, at 10:00 am at the premises of the Ghana Publishing Company (Assembly Press) in Accra.
