The assembly and unit committee elections in some electoral areas in the Ashanti and Eastern regions have been canceled and rescheduled for Thursday, December 21, 2023, according to information acquired by MyGhanaMedia.com.

The cancellation was a result of inadequate ballot papers, the EC stated in its statement.

The commission also expressed regret for any inconveniences that the citizens in these electoral districts had to endure.
