The Greater Accra Council of State election on Tuesday, February 11, was temporarily marred by chaos at the Accra Metropolitan Assembly (AMA) head office.
The confusion erupted after the police reportedly prevented one of the aspirants, Musah Ziyad, from attempting to enter the polling room with some individuals.
Amid the commotion, Greater Accra Regional Minister Linda Ocloo fled through the exit door.
However, calm was subsequently restored, and the election continued.
A total of 58 delegates were expected to cast their ballots to elect a representative for the region.
The election is being supervised by the Electoral Commission (EC), with the Greater Accra Regional Director of the EC, Mrs. Gladys Pinkrah, confirming the smooth conduct of the process.
Initially, 13 candidates were scheduled to contest the election.
However, three of them, including Obed Nyarko, Albert Borketey Naawu, and Musah Ziyad, withdrew.
This left 10 candidates, including Afotey-Agbo Joseph Nii Laryea, Summertime Kwabillna Ampong, Sampson Seyram Kwadzo Agbemabiese, Horvey Charles Yaw, Redeemer Worwui, Joseph Tetten Sottie, Annan Helbert Nii Aryee, Samuel Duah, Nene Drolor Bosso Adamtey (I), and Edmund Siaw Akugbey.
