According to him, the criteria one needs to meet before being issued with the national card under the supervision of the National Identification Authority (NIA) are too stringent since majority of Ghanaians do not have birth certificate or passport. He said: “The ID card is going to become the most important identification to Ghanaians. “The NDC will fight on the side of majority of Ghanaians to ensure that they are identified as Ghanaians and that nobody is denationalized because of this process. We will use every legitimate instrument that is possible under a democracy to ensure that every Ghanaians is able to register,” the former president remarked.
