El-Rufai in Ghana to observe Presidential and Parliamentary elections

Governor Nasir El-Rufai of Kaduna State is currently in Ghana to observe the country’s Presidential and Parliamentary elections billed for Wednesday, December 7, 2016.

The Ghanaian General elections to elect a President and Members of Parliament had initially been scheduled for November 7, 2016, but was later rejected by the Parliament.

The president is elected using the two-round system, whilst the 275 members of Parliament will be elected in single-member constituencies using first-past-the-post voting.

In Ghana, eligible voters must be Ghanaian citizens who are at least 18 years old, although those declared insane are disenfranchised. Parliamentary candidates must be Ghanaian citizens at least 21 years old, and either be resident in their constituency or have lived there for at least five of the ten years prior to the election.
