Bougainville voter roll preps begin

The Bougainville Referendum Commission has partnered with the ABG’s Department of Community Government to ensure all eligible Bougainvilleans get registered.

Bougainville Electoral Commissioner George Manu said the referendum voter roll will be developed through a three-phased process; the first involves verification of the 20-15 ABG electoral rolls against ward voter registries.

Commissioner Manu said phase one is almost completed.

In the second phase, ward recorders will do door-to-door visits to ensure all eligible electors verify their enrolment details.
