There is heavy security presence at the Accra Sports Stadium – the venue for the national delegates congress of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Security in and around the congress grounds has been beefed up to forestall any unforeseen circumstances and ward off persons likely to foment trouble that could compromise the election procedure.
The presence of hundreds of personnel from the Ghana Police Security together with their accoutrements can heavily be felt with the ‘No Accreditation, No Entry’ policy being enforced.
Officers of the Ghana National Fire Service have not been left out. Medical teams and clinics have also been set up within the precincts of the stadium.
Party leadership has assured of an incident-free congress following the chaos that marred the youth and women’s organizers election at the University of Cape Coast last weekend.
Over 9,000 delegates are expected to be deployed from the party’s various constituencies to partake in the voting process.
