"We will provide the needed security to combat any unforeseen circumstance. We will have police personnel to police around and in the trade fair," he said.
About 15,000 people from across the country, made up of 9,350 delegates and 5,650 observers, are expected to throng the Trade Fair Centre in Accra to elect the national executives.
He also appealed to the delegates to comport themselves and to be law-abiding so as to not warrant any action from the police.
