A 52-year-old man, Samuel Yaw Koranteng, has been arrested and handed over to the Nsawam police after being found in possession of a biometric verification device (BVD) belonging to the Electoral Commission of Ghana.
The suspect, who claims to reside in Tudu, Accra, was discovered with the device, identified by serial number VVD49976, on Friday, August 23, in Nsawam by local residents.
Members of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Nsawam quickly intervened, facilitating his arrest and turning him over to the police for further investigation.
Mark Oliver Kevor, the Eastern Regional Chairman of the NDC, confirmed the arrest to Channel One News and urged the Inspector General of Police to conduct a thorough investigation into the matter.

What a reckless government, and how can this be explained? This is something that can happen only under Akufo Addo-Bawumia's government. Wonders shall never end.
