Deputy General Secretary of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Gbande has made serious allegations concerning the disappearance of Biometric Verification Devices (BVDs) in Ghana.
According to Gbande, the missing BVDs have been taken by both the Electoral Commission (EC) and the leadership of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) to neighbouring countries for unauthorized voter registration ahead of the 2024 elections.
”They have taken some machines to Togo, Burkina Faso among others to register persons who will come and vote in Ghana posing as Ghanaians in the 2024 elections"

Dismissing the EC’s characterization of the missing items as “mere laptops,” Gbande emphasized the critical role of BVD machines in the electoral process, denouncing any attempts to trivialize their significance.
“Anyone who describes the said machines as mere laptops is lying, they are not ordinary machines, they are for a purpose. They are not just laptops, they are BVD machines, they are very important components of the elections which have been taken,” Gbande remarked, highlighting the specialized function of BVDs in elections.
