Politicians Must Be Stopped From Visiting Polling Stations – Security Analyst

Security Analyst and Foreign Relations Expert, Adib Saani has suggested that the country stops politicians from visiting polling stations amidst the violence associated with the voters registration exercise.

He noted that these politicians do not go to the registration centres alone but with armies who disrupt the electoral processes.

Speaking on the Happy Morning Show, Mr Adib Saani said, “it is high time we stopped the Members of Parliament (MP) and all that from moving from polling station to polling station to supervise. It is the work of the police and the Electoral Commission. When they go to these places, they don’t go alone, they go with an army which can disrupt the processes.”

This comes on the back of Minister for Special Development Initiatives, Mavis Hawa Koomson’s recent gun firing incident at a Kasoa voters registration centre.

Adib Saani noted, “what she did was irresponsible and it will set a dangerous precedent. And everyone who visits a polling centre will carry a gun which will cause fear for all and possibly cause us all to suffer.”
