According to witnesses at the polling station, the woman who was brought to the polling station by an aspiring Member of Parliament contesting on the ticket of the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) was caught giving out two or more ballot papers to voters perceived to be supporters of the NDC.
She is also said to have removed unofficial ballot papers from a booklet unknown to the other officials and agents at the polling centre.
