IEA to hold presidential debates in October and November

The Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) is set to hold presidential and vice-presidential debates in the months of October and November 2024.

According to the IEA claims that it has started talks with other political parties to ensure their involvement in the exercise.

In an interview with the media, IEA fellow, Justice Sophia Akuffo emphasized that the debates will provide voters a better understanding of each candidate’s policies and give them a platform to be assessed.

“The IEA envisages holding the encounters in September and the debates in October and November. We will announce the precise date, time and venues after conducting engagements with candidates and their political parties, Justice Akuffo said in a report by citinewsroom.com

She added: “We will also urge all to keep themselves updated on the IEA website at www.ieagh.org.”

The Flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia has invited the Flagbearer of the National Democratic Congressman (NDC), John Dramani Mahama to a debate on the economy.

But the call has been met with resistance by the NDC, which claims that the NPP leader wants to bring his long-dead political career back to life.
