The footage, which was recorded at a polling station, captures Mr. Amoah closely observing a voter while they were in the process of casting their vote.
This incident raises serious concerns about the privacy and integrity of the voting process, especially in light of Ghana’s commitment to free and fair elections.
In the video, the MP can be seen standing in another voting booth, then moving to apparent try and look over the shoulder of the voter. The voter appears to be unaware of the MP’s actions.
Electoral laws in Ghana are clear: the secrecy of the ballot is a fundamental principle that ensures voters can cast their votes without fear of intimidation or interference.
