He told Kwame Dadzie on Ghana Weekend TV that the voter’s register is now ready and that they are just waiting for the National Elections Committee to set a date for the elections.
“We have the monies to do it. We’ve gone to the Electoral Commission, they have given us the budget, we are ready to pay them. The only thing left now is for the Election Committee to set a date. They are meeting on Tuesday and I am hopeful that they will come up with a date. MUSIGA will have its elections and whoever wins MUSIGA will move forward,” he said.

Unlike previously, both the National and regional elections will be held concurrently.
The President position is being contested by Bessa Simons, Ras Caleb Appiah-Levi and Deborah Freeman.
