The notice was signed by Dr. Bossman Eric Asare, Deputy Chairperson responsible for Corporate Services, acting on behalf of the EC Chairperson.
Interest in the Ayawaso East contest has grown in recent days, particularly following internal developments within the National Democratic Congress (NDC), including allegations of vote buying during its parliamentary primary.
The meeting is expected to provide a platform for political parties to discuss logistical and procedural arrangements ahead of the highly anticipated by-election.
