Professor Edmund Nminyem Delle, the National Chairman of the Convention Peoples Party (CPP), says the party\u2019s newly launched biometric membership Identification Cards, will help solve the party\u2019s single digit votes syndrome at polling stations during national elections.<\/p>\n
He said quite often than not, the number of registered party members the CPP have, does not show up to vote during national elections, thereby making the party record single digits at some polling stations.<\/p>\n
Professor Delle said this at the official launch and registration of CPP biometric membership ID cards on Friday at the party Headquarters, in Accra.<\/p>\n
[contextly_sidebar id=”w161r8gKKwh1PZbViUPt4VTLHXei6jC4″]He said the launch of the membership biometric cards was the first of many steps the CPP was taking to revive the party formed by Osagyefo Dr. Kwame Nkrumah to its glorious status.<\/p>\n
He said even though the CPP was behind on the list of political parties to undergo the biometric membership card registration process, the idea was the first on the party priority list discussed at its National Congress held in 2017.<\/p>\n
While making a rallying call to party members to register, Professor Delle said the biometric cards would not only ensure the membership status of registered members, but would also ensure that members are powered to contest for party positions at the branch, constituency, regional and national levels.<\/p>\n
He expressed appreciation to the national executives’ committee for taking the decision to expedite action on the registration exercise and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) for their financial support.<\/p>\n
The cards are in categories of Platinum, which would cost GH\u00a21,000 and above, the Diamond GH\u00a2750, Gold GH\u00a2500, Silver GH\u00a2300, Bronze GH\u00a2200 and the Ordinary GH\u00a25 and above.<\/p>\n
