“Well, it (Yendi misunderstanding) has to be resolved, no matter how difficult it will be. It has to be resolved and all the reports that will come from Yendi, one from the regional party and also from the reps that we sent there, from the Electoral Commission and the Ghana Police, will all influence what decision will be taken,” he said.

“But, it has to be resolved, and it will be resolved,” he added.
