He, however, encouraged all and sundry to take part in the registration exercise as patriotic citizens

Bawumia reiterated strict adherence to all safety measures, including wearing our face masks and observing social distancing.

@Gentle Jack according to him, the process is not as smooth as he is claiming it to be in other places.

Your Excellency, the process will surely be cool and safe because you're the vice president of the republic. But in other places it's not smooth at all. Anyways, Allah bless and guide all leaders.

@Paa Willie stated that he is patiently waiting for the EC to begin registration in his hometown

I'm also waiting for the EC to commence ours in my hometown. Indeed, It is my civic responsibility to register so as to vote in the impending 2020 election.

@Abeduma Elisha decried the non-adherence to COVID-19 protocolsat other centres

In most registration centers, the Covid-19 protocols are not observed. You politicians can pretend the right things are being done; after all you value the power more than the lives of those you seek power from.

@Nana Yaw Twumasi said he has received his.

I've also gotten mine ooo. Let's meet at the polling station and vote for Nana Addo and the NPP candidate in our constituencies.
