Speaking to the Ghana News Agency after the two-day exercise, Mr Michael Aidoo, the Western North Regional Chairman of the NDC, commended the aspirants for a successful exercise and tasked them to run clean campaigns devoid of insults.

He tasked the constituency executives to monitor the activities of candidates on their various platforms and refer them to the party’s disciplinary committee when necessary.
