NIA SET NEW DATES FOR MOP-UP REGISTRATIONS IN ASHANTI, VOLTA AND OTI REGIONS
The Government of Ghana’s resolution to register all Ghanaians for what it terms as Ghana Card is still ongoing.
According to the body (National Identification Authority) mandated to register the citizenry, Ghana Card will be used to validate a person’s identity at airports, borders, police check posts and while booking tickets. Also, the emerging Ghana railway travel may require a person to carry their Ghana Card especially if e-tickets are introduced.
The NIA has released new dates for a mop-up exercise.
