The National Identification Authority (NIA) on Friday said it would start distributing the National Identity Card, known as the \u201cGhana card\u201d, from July 4 starting with the Greater Accra Region.<\/p>\n
The Authority said 250 work station operators, supervisors and
monitors would be deployed to ensure the smooth running of the
exercise, which would last for one week at each sub-metro.<\/p>\n
Phase One starts from the Okaikwei sub-metro from July 4-10 to be
followed by Ablekuma South, Osu Clottey, Asiedu Keteke, Ayawaso and
Kpeshie, Ga East and Ga West in that order.<\/p>\n
At a press conference in Accra, the Executive Secretary of the
NIA, Dr. William Ahadzie, said information on the exercise would be
communicated to the public through radio announcements, information
vans and letters to various institutions.<\/p>\n
The collection points would be the various mass registration
centres while mobile distribution units would visit institutions
covered under special the registration exercise.<\/p>\n
Dr Ahadzi appealed to the public not to rush and queue at dawn
for the cards adding that those who did not receive their cards would
be given another opportunity to get them from their regional offices.
He said a list of those whose cards were not ready would also be
made available so that people would not queue for long hours only to
be told that that their card was not ready.<\/p>\n
Explanations would be given about what went wrong and how to get
another one. The Executive Secretary appealed to the public not to be violent at the stations because every Ghanaian would be served and warned that those who misbehaved would face the law.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
