The Electoral Commission (EC) has outlined measures to curb spread of the coronavirus (COVID-19) as it laces its boots for the compilation of a new voters register.

Though it is yet to give an exact date for the exercise, the EC has given indication of compiling a new register once it gets the green light from health experts.

The EC had scheduled April 18 for compilation of the new voters register ahead of the December general elections but had to put it on hold due to the outbreak of COVID-19 in the country.

The move to discard the old voter register, the EC contends, is in favour of the new Biometric Voter Management System (BVMS) which would among other things have a facial recognition ability.

The NDC has however vehemently resisted attempts by the EC to register citizens for a new register amid the COVID-19 pandemic.
