The Electoral Commission of Ghana has announced plans to hold regular media briefings on Election Day, December 7, 2024, to keep the public informed about the progress of the elections.
The briefings are aimed at providing timely updates and ensuring transparency throughout the electoral process.
The first media briefing will take place at 9:00 AM, with subsequent briefings scheduled for 12:00 noon, 3:00 PM, and 6:00 PM.
From 9:00 PM onwards, additional briefings will be held as results are received from various regions. Each session will last no more than 30 minutes.
Media personnel with accreditation cards for the National Collation Centre have been invited to cover the briefings, which will also provide a platform for the Commission to address any reports or stories emerging from across the country.
Samuel Tettey, Deputy EC Chairman for Operations, made this announcement in a statement issued on Thursday, December 5. He urged both the media and the general public to verify any election-related reports with the Commission to avoid the spread of unverified information.
The Commission remains committed to delivering fair, transparent, credible, and peaceful elections and looks forward to working closely with the media to keep citizens informed throughout the process.
For any clarifications, the public can reach the Commission on its toll-free number: 0800 324 324.
