The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has asked its sitting Members of Parliament (MPs) to suspend campaign activities in their constituencies with immediate effect.
The party has also barred its MPs from travelling in a bid to get the numbers required to fight against the Electoral Commission’s proposed Constitutional Instrument (CI) for election 2024.
NDC and its MPs are against the decision by the EC to make the Ghana card the sole identity document to register to vote in the next general elections.
In a statement signed by General Secretary of the NDC, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, the party said the decision was adopted by its Functional Executive Committee on Tuesday, March 7, 2023.
The party also directed its MPs to always be present in Parliament in a bid to shoot down the new CI. It thus declared from now till March 31, 2023, as “Operation Save our Democracy” to help champion its mission.
