Earlier on InsightNewsgh.com reported that NDC delegates will receive GH 40 each from the John Dramani Mahama campaign to help them get to the polling places for Saturday’s presidential and parliamentary primaries.
“There must be no discrimination in the disbursement of the GH¢40 per delegate T&T money,” campaign manager for Mahama, Professor Joshua Alabi, is cited as saying.
According to a statement released by Mahama’s office on May 12, the sum won’t be a substitute for what the party will contribute.
“The Campaign believes supporting the delegates to travel to the centers will ensure a high voter turnout and every voter will be empowered to vote and return home without financial impediment in these difficult economic times,” in a statement, Joyce Bawa Mogtari, Mr. Mahama’s spokeswoman, signed it
