South West Regional ELECAM Bureau Sets Out to the Field to Boost Voters Registration Process

Given the low voters turnout at the various registration stations of ELECAM nation wide, the south West regional bureau of ELECAM has responded to the challenge of meeting potential voters in their various communities through cultural, development and trade unions and associations.

It was graced to this foundation that the Molyko carpenters union in Buea witnessed their names inscribed into the voters list right at their workshops. Besides this laudable initiative of the regional bureau of Elections Cameroon under its recently installed boss in the person of Justice BAU OKAH BAU, the carpenters alongside other anticipated voters were sensitized on the importance of this very important civic responsibility.

Talking recently, the South West regional boss of ELECAM, barrister OKAH , said this move was just another strategy of getting more people registered into the electorate register given the fact that many people complain of busy schedules and so on. According to him, despite the reluctant attitude of many Cameroonians to turnout for the voters registration exercise, the South West bureau has witnessed a significant improvement in the number of registered voters with figures rising from 3000 to about 15000 voters this year.
