Former Central Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Bernard Kojo Allotey Jacobs, has said on Peace FM, monitored by MyNewsGh.com that Ghanaian voters have lost confidence in Ghanaian politicians.

According to the Former Central Regional Chairman, the low turnout at the district level elections shows Ghanaians are losing confidence in politicians.

“I said on this platform that the district level elections will experience voter apathy and truly I don’t believe 32% of voters throughout Ghana turned up to vote because Ghanaian voters have lost confidence in Ghanaian politicians,” he said.

He concluded that the just-ended district level elections didn’t record up to 32% turnout because of voter apathy.
