An old lady has been verified facially after her fingerprints failed to verify and synchronize at the Catholic Social Centre polling station in Zuarugu of the Bolgatanga East constituency in the Upper East Region.
According to reports, the incumbent Member of Parliament Dr. Dominic Ayine Akuritinga who was about to cast his vote observed that the old lady whose fingers could not be identified by the verification device was verified to vote when the facial technology was used.
Recall Electoral Commission procured new Biometric Verification Devices (BVD) which it argued had enhanced features including facial verification.
Despite complaints made by the possition party, the EC went ahead and procured the machines which are currently being used for the ongoing voting.
