Voting remains in progress in Nkwanta South, a constituency in Ghana's Oti Region, amid complications stemming from discrepancies and issues with ballot papers. The election, originally set for 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m., requires about 1,483 delegates to select leaders for the constituency. With a curfew starting at 8:00 p.m. and ending at 5:00 a.m., officials face uncertainty about completing the vote, tallying the results, and announcing the winners before the curfew begins.
The curfew, designed to ensure safety, applies to Nkwanta and other nearby communities. The Interior Ministry has called on residents to respect the restrictions. The NDC elections are part of the party’s broader reorganization to choose grassroots leaders in preparation for the 2028 general elections. The polls are set for October 24 and 25, 2026.
Reporters from Adom News, including Obrempongba K. Owusu, continue to provide updates on the situation as delegates await the finalization of the election and the announcement of the results.
