The Electoral Commission (EC) has warned political party agents and observers against interfering with the electoral process and obstruct voting on the election-day.
Mr Charles Damoah, the Deputy Brong-Ahafo Regional Director of the EC, said the EC would not hesitate to hand over any trouble maker to the security agencies.
Mr Damoah was speaking at a regional training workshop for election observers in Sunyani.
It was organised by the Institute for Democratic Governance in collaboration with the Civic Forum Initiative, a Non Governmental Orgnisation, and brought together about 70 local election observers from the 28 constituencies in the region.
Mr Damoah said returning, collation and presiding officers would be responsible for the conduct of the election.
He asked that the party agents and parliamentary candidates reported any suspected irregularity including impersonation and multiple voting to the presiding officers and EC officials for appropriate action.
The Right Reverend Festus Yeboah-Asuamah, the Regional Co-ordinator of IDEG, said ensuring that the December 07 election was peaceful and credible was a shared responsibility.
It was important everybody accepted to play their expected roles well and played by the rules of the game, he said.
He reminded the election observers to be impartial in their duties.

Adwoa Yeboah. You are a disgrace and a ***barred word***. Who told you the EC boss was once an NDC Parliamentary candidate.? I pray for God to forgive you.
Charlotte Osei is a perfect description of what it means to have a "square peg in a round whole." She is irritatingly disappointing. A novice to the core without any idea of what it means to be an electoral commissioner. From day one, her childish attitude of taking a posture of a fighter rather than using common sense to attend to her basic assignments has painted a dirty picture of her to Ghanaians. Why should Charlotte Kenson-Smith (Now Charlotte Osei) who stood on the ticket of the NDC in 2008 as a parliamentary candidate be made and electoral commissioner? No wonder her bias towards the NDC. Mahama is such a disappointment in the history of Ghana's presidency.
Small special voting this incompetent woman cannot organise... I blame briber take John Ford Incompetent Mahama for appointing an incompetent and arrogance Mrs Osei to the EC... This woman must resign. period!
