Member of Parliament for Tema East and the New Patriotic Party's parliamentary candidate, Mr Daniel Kwatei Titus-Glover has threatened to halt the conduct of the special voting in the area.

Speaking to the media, Mr Titus-Glover said he had instructed his lawyers to go to court to put an injunction on the Thursday December 1, special voting for the security services in Tema East.

According to him, some Naval officers residing in Tema New Town and police officers in his constituency had been put on the special voting list for either Tema West or Central instead of Tema West comstituency.

The incumbent Member of Parliament, accused the Flag Officer Commanding (FOC) of the Eastern Naval Base and the Tema Regional Police Commander of conniving with the Electoral Commission to deprive him of votes.

He accused the FOC and the Regional Commander of sending the names of those voters in the special voting to the EC head office instead of dealing with the metropolitan office.

However, Tema Metropolitan Electoral Officer Nana Oduro Numapau, said Mr Titus-Glover made him aware of the issue of which he offered explaination about the processes.

Nana Numapau further explained that the various security services across the country sent their lists to their head offices from where it was compiled and subsequently sent to the Electoral Commission for the creation of the special voting register.
