He argued that Ghanaian youths need employment, which will be his main goal when given the opportunity.

“The NPP was built on courage and internal democracy. So, I say to you, stand firm,” he stated.

“I stand for industrialisation, and that’s all my message. I am also for employment and jobs. What we need in this country is employment for the youth. So please give me the opportunity to serve you, and I will not disappoint you,” he said.

Also, Isaac Baah Boamah, a member of the NPP Presidential Election Committee, has said no mobile phones is allow at inner polling zones.

Speaking on Citi News on Friday, January 30, Isaac Baah Boamah stated, “The electoral officials, per the guidelines, have been told that it is a walk-in exercise. The areas will be demarcated into three sections: the outer section, the middle section, and the inner section. The outer section is where the electoral officials will identify you using your ID card for this exercise.

“We have approved four forms of identification; any one of them will be a permissible voter’s ID, party ID, national passport, or Ghana card. Any delegate without an ID cannot cast a ballot,” he explained.

“I urge every delegate to go and look for their ID card before they come to vote. When you enter the inner circle, you are not supposed to go in with any foreign material, including mobile phones,” he said.

211,849 registered NPP delegates across 16 regions of the country are voting in the keenly anticipated NPP presidential primaries.
