The FEC meeting also approved the new payment platform.

The NDC General Secretary also used the occasion to dispel rumors of the party delaying its internal elections. According to him, the opposition NDC has a constitution that spelled out the road map of any elections of party elections.

Digital Payment Platform

According to the Deputy General Secretary, Dr. Peter Boamah Otokunor, a QR code will be posted at all NDC offices and other vantage points to give easy access to members to scan and pay anywhere across the country.

He further added that all transactions across the digital platforms are only accessible when members input their digital membership card numbers and phone contacts in filling in the blanks.

However, the party maintained its monthly dues at GHc2 and GHc10 as filing fees for aspiring branch executives.
