IEA sets presidential debates for October and November

The Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) has announced plans for presidential and vice-presidential debates in October 2024.

Despite previous criticism from the National Democratic Congress for a lack of engagement, the IEA says it has subsequently begun conversations with several political parties to assure their participation.

Speaking to the media, distinguished fellow of the IEA Justice Sophia Akuffo emphasized that the debates will provide voters with a better understanding of each candidate's proposals and serve as a venue for candidates to be reviewed.

"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"

"We will also urge all to keep themselves updated on the IEA website at www.ieagh.org" she added.
