The electoral commission’s missing biometric verification equipment are causing concern among the minority in parliament.
The NDC MPs claim that at a meeting with the leadership of Parliament today, the EC, chaired by Mrs. Jean Adukwei Mensah, verified the development.
Speaking to the media, minority leader Dr. Cassiel Ato Forson requested that the police provide a thorough report on their inquiry.
Dr. Forson issued a warning that the future elections can be compromised by the devices that are missing.
“The verification devices that the Electoral Commission uses to register Ghanaians on the Electoral roll and it’s used to verify us before you vote seven of them are missing.
“The Electoral confirms that seven of the biometric devices are indeed missing. I urge the CID and the Ghana police service to immediately issue a statement giving us the details of their investigation so far.
“I am concerned and worried that devices in the hands of an unknown person can compromise the future elections that we have in Ghana. Who knows whether this is in the hands of a political party and who knows what that political party is doing with it,” he asked.
