In a recent press release, the United Nations Development Program (UNDP) in Sierra Leone has officially announced that the disbursement of payments for polling personnel involved in the June 24th general elections is currently underway for all verified individuals.
The statement issued by the UNDP reads, “We wish to inform the public that the process of compensating temporary polling personnel is in progress for those individuals whose information has been recently confirmed through the ECSL/UNDP Call Center.”
It further details that “Verified personnel can anticipate receiving an SMS containing their individual SIM Korpor e-voucher codes, facilitating the redemption of their payments. These payments can be collected at any branch of Rokel Commercial (RC) Bank, as well as through existing SIM Korpor agents and designated centers where the polling personnel underwent training, all administered by ECSL.”
In addition to this, the press release highlights the locations of RC Bank payment points for the convenience of those affected.
The statement concludes with an important reminder, urging “Verified staff members to bring valid government-issued identification, such as a national identity card, voter ID card, driver’s license, passport, etc., which was used to confirm their details during the verification process.”
For any inquiries or concerns, the Elections Commission of Sierra Leone (ECSL) has been designated as the point of contact. The UNDP extends its gratitude to all parties involved for their cooperation and patience throughout this process.
