Comment
Method adopted in 1992. A fresh voters list is prepared prior to each National Election. This is prepared from registration books compiled by registration officers. The register contains the names, addresses, gender, chiefdom and registration number of all registered voters. The Constitution clearly outlines the duty of the electoral management body (EMB) to oversee the entire exercise.
