MUSIGA Elections Committee meets national aspirants

According to him, after the court’s ruling as the determination of the Arbitration and Dispensary Committee, the election committee has been working feverishly. He indicated that so far, they have done some preliminary work towards the reopening of the register and also, preparing the data for the voters register.

He noted that “We have had meetings with officers of the Electoral Commission of Ghana to prepare for the elections and we have officially written to confirm the election date which is 8th August 2023 also.”

He then proceeded to brief the aspirants on the various processes towards the elections and assured the aspirants that they are working diligently to ensure that the elections are free and fair.

He informed the aspirants that in compiling the voters register, they would require a representative of each aspirant to monitor the process to ensure fair play.

According to Mr. Marfo, members of the Union have been given the opportunity to check on their status from the national secretariat/regional offices between now till 15th June 2023, so that those who need to renew their membership can do so since only duly paid-up members who are eligible to vote will be on the voters register.

He called on any aspirant who has not submitted their passport pictures as specified by the Electoral Commission of Ghana to do so over the next two weeks.
The meeting was attended by seven of the eleven aspirants.

Also in attendance were some members of the Arbitration and Disciplinary Committee and the National Election Committee.
