The National Identification Authority (NIA) has supported calls by the Electoral Commission to use the Ghana Card as the sole document for voter registration in the 2024 general elections.
According to Professor Ken Attafuah, Executive Secretary of the National Identification Authority, the NIA plans to issue Ghana cards to eligible Ghanaians by 2024.
“We are left with approximately, two million people yet to register and if those people desire to register, there is no reason they cannot be registered within six months. We are talking about 2024 and even the day, the Electoral Commission will say they are closing registration.”
“I want to assure this nation that, if Parliament grants the EC’s wish and gives it the go-ahead to use the Ghana card, the NIA is poised to give out the backlog of cards and register and issue cards to those who do not have.”
