The Chairman of the elections committee of the party, Kakra Essamuah revealed this at a press conference on Thursday.
He added that the committee will thoroughly vet the aspirants on their qualifications for the position, ideologies and vision for the party.

"The next step is the vetting; the presidential will take place on Tuesday and the parliamentary vetting, will be the next two weeks probably the first week of April. We are working towards that,” he said.
