2020 Race: Spio-Garbrah To Pick Nomination forms

The intervention by the Council of Elders to the National Executive Committee (NEC) of the National Democratic Congress to slash the filing fee for flag bearer-aspirants by GHS100,000 has been welcomed by One of the flag bearer hopefuls of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr Ekwow Spio-Garbrah.

This according to information will see him pick his nomination form today, November 6, 2018 at the party headquarters.

This development comes on the back of the party deciding to reduce their GH₵400,000 filing fee to GH₵300,000.

Spio-Garbrah and other candidates failed to pick up forms last Tuesday as it closed. This was due to the filing fee which eight of the aspirants deemed as outrageous.

Almost all the aspirants were unhappy with the initial fees. They joined forces to petition the party’s founder Jerry John Rawlings as well as the Council of Elders, whose intervention led to the current changes.
