The National Democratic Congress (NDC) constituency elections have been disrupted by violence at Odododiodioo in the Greater Accra Region and Sefwi Akontombra in the Western North Region.
At Odododiodioo, the sorting and counting of ballot papers were suspended after violence broke out following the close of voting, according to Citi News.
The disturbance disrupted proceedings as party members gathered at the polling centre to elect constituency executives. The cause of the violence has not yet been established, and there is no confirmed information on possible injuries or property damage.
It is also unclear when sorting and counting will resume, as party officials have yet to announce measures to restore calm and continue the process.
In a separate incident at Sefwi Akontombra, police reportedly fired multiple gunshots after a suspected "machoman" allegedly snatched ballot papers during the elections.
The incident disrupted voting and prompted police intervention to restore order at the centre. Reports indicate that the suspect has since been arrested.
However, details surrounding the alleged ballot snatching remain unclear, including what triggered the incident and whether anyone was injured.
Further information on the arrest and the impact of the disturbances on the constituency elections is yet to emerge.
