Some officers of the National Identification Authority (NIA) have been busted for allegedly registering people for the national identity card, Ghana Card at night.
They were reportedly busted at a private residence at Awudome, near the St Theresa Catholic Church in Accra on Tuesday night [May 7] at about 7:30 pm.
It was some residents of the area, who claimed that upon a tip-off, they pounced on the officers who were reportedly working outside of the approved working hours for the national exercise, which is being done in phases and started two weeks ago in Greater Accra.
The National Identification Authority (NIA) started the mass registration and Ghana Card issuance exercise in the Greater Accra Region from Monday, April 29, 2019, and expected to end on Saturday, July 6, 2019.
The region has been divided into two zones: Accra West and Accra East, where registration centres have been opened at specific locations.
