He said the amount is outrageous and therefore it should be rejected by all the aspirants.

“In fact, the amount is outrageous and unreasonable but this is a NEC decision. We will like to appeal to the Council of Elders to meet with the NEC to review that amount", he said on Asempa FM.

Namoale, a former MP for La Dadekotopon, also added that: "The unreasonableness is on the date, you cannot use 10 days to tour the whole country to sign on the form; you can't. [It] ... is too short a time..."
