“All campaign activities in all constituencies with sitting NDC MPs are hereby suspended. All sitting NDC MPs, shall be required to attend all Parliamentary sittings,” excerpts of the release signed by the General Secretary of NDC, Mr Fifi Fiavi Kwetey said.
It has also asked those who have already travelled to other return immediately.
“No NDC MP shall undertake any travel that will affect his or her attendance in Parliament. Any MP who has travelled is hereby recalled immediately.”
The release also asked constituency executives to strictly adhere the directive.
“All regional and constituency executives and aspirants are directed to ensure strict compliance with the directives herein.”
Mr Kwetey also warned parliamentary aspirants to “in their own interest, to strictly adhere to these directives as breach of same shall attract severe sanctions.”
