Election 2024: We don’t need military at polling centres – Alban Bagbin
Speaker of Parliament, Alban Bagbin has urged the government to exclude the military from supervising the upcoming election.
According to him, the service should be invited to assist the police in the process only when very necessary.
“We don’t want to see the military during elections. When there is the need to call them, they will be called. But they should not be at polling or voting centers,” he said.
The Speaker said this on Tuesday, June 11, 2024, when the House reconvened after a break.
In his opening address to the House, Mr. Bagbin expressed concern over the pockets of violence experienced in the just-ended voter registration exercise.
