The National Organiser of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Sammy Awuku, has suggested that he will join the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) if they are bold to boycott the registration exercise set to take place on April 18, 2020.
He said since the NDC is determined to resist the EC's decision to compile a new voters' register at all cost, "they should adopt a principle of asking their members to stay away from the registration exercise; that is one of the things that can woo me to the NDC . . . they oppose everything and if we will follow the NDC, we will wear pampers instead of pants."
He was reacting to a recently held meeting between the EC, its Eminent Advisory Committee, IPAC, and other stakeholders when he appeared on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo'.
The Electoral Commission (EC) has set April 18, 2020, as the date for the compilation of the new voters' register despite agitations from the opposition NDC and other political parties under the name Inter-Party Resistance Against a New Voters' Register (IPRNA).
