Mahdi Gibrill urges aspirants to avoid billboards in internal elections

Acting Director of IT and Elections of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Mahdi Gibrill has urged aspirants contesting the party’s internal elections to avoid mounting billboards, arguing that the practice could lead to unnecessary expenditure in contests where candidates already know the delegates they need to reach.

Mr Mahdi said the party had already issued a directive discouraging aspirants from mounting billboards and had taken steps to reduce their size as part of efforts to limit unnecessary expenditure during the internal electoral process.

He maintained that aspirants should be mindful of the resources they commit to internal contests, noting that the party would need to unite and prepare for the general elections after completing its internal electoral processes.
