How to Check Your Voter Details in Ghana’s Electoral Commission’s Register for Free Using A Short Code Has Been Explained in this article as Ghana gets ready for a historic election.
Registered voters in Ghana can now check whether their names have been captured accurately in the voters registered compiled for the country’s all-important presidential and parliamentary elections scheduled for December 7th.
To ensure citizens do not incur any additional cost in checking their names from their mobile devices, the leading opposition party, the National Democratic Congress (NDC), has introduced a short code to help all registered voters check their names.

The free service will offer all Ghanaians across the country the chance to check their details. Every kind of mobile device can be used for checking the voter details.
