Auki Red Cross volunteer staff assisted in the election counting process in Malaita over the past days after polling day on November 19.
Team team leader David Oto said almost every province that have Red Cross branch offices are also doing the first aid assistance during the counting process.
He said their purpose of being at the counting stations is to attend to officials or anyone in the event the need arises.
Oto said they are working closely with the police and election officials to ensure everyone’s safe.
