The ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) has vowed to deal with Parliamentary nominees of the party who are not actively monitoring the ongoing limited voter registration exercise by the Electoral Commission.
A statement signed by the General Secretary of the party, Johnson Asiedu Nketia said "it has come to the attention of the Functional Executive Committee (FEC) of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) that some Parliamentary Candidates are not participating actively in the on-going Limited Registration Exercise."
"FEC is stating for the avoidance of doubt that all Parliamentary Candidates who are not supporting and participating actively in the Exercise shall have questions to answer," the statement added.
The limited registration exercise, which began on Thursday, April 28 is aimed at capturing the details of Ghanaians who have turned 18 since the last election in 2012.
The EC estimates to register about 1.2 million Ghanaians who have turned 18 including people who would want to register for the first time.
Meanwhile, the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) has accused the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) and the Electoral Commission (EC) of intimidating persons wishing to register in the ongoing limited voter registration exercise.
Addressing a news conference in Accra today, acting General Secretary of the NPP, John Boadu said the two bodies seem to have conspired to frustrate people, especially in their stronghold regions, that is the Ashanti and Eastern Regions from registering.
