Several voters in Ayawaso Central Constituency demonstrated their commitment to casting their ballots early in today’s general election, with some arriving at polling stations even before midnight.
However, images from the Sarbah Harvard Primary and JHS 3 polling center showed a surprising sight, several early-bird voters, exhausted from waiting, fast asleep at their designated polling stations.
With Ghanaians heading to the polls today to elect a president and parliamentarians, the dedication of these voters highlights the enthusiasm and importance many place on participating in the democratic process.
But the scenes of voters sleeping in anticipation of voting also underscore the challenges some face in accessing polling stations and the long waits that can sometimes result.
The images serve as a reminder of the efforts and commitment required from many voters to participate fully in their country’s democratic process.
