About 95 police personnel and 32 military armed to the teeth, have been deployed to the constituency, Angel News correspondent, Osei Kwadwo reported Wednesday, June 24, 2020.
Their presence is to ensure the process proceeds smoothly in the midst of the tensed atmosphere characterising the polls there.
