Some security officers in the Tamale Central constituency in the Northern region have angrily vandalised voting materials over their missing names on the second round of special voting, it has been reported.

According to starrfmonline.com, 20 officers kicked ballot boxes, booths and other essential materials after they were told their names could not be traced on the voting list.

The aggrieved officers had earlier threatened to pepper spray the EC officials at the polling centre over the same problem.

They claimed that the EC left their names off the list to prevent them from voting.

The Northern Regional police command has said the officers will be punished for their conduct.

The complaints of missing names in today's round of special voting is widespread with reports coming from across the country.
