GCRP to create awareness about biometric registration

Ghana Conference of Religious for Peace (GCRP), on Friday said the body is set to go to all religious bodies, to call on members to take part in the Biometric registration scheduled for this month.

This was contained in a statement issued by Alhaji Mama Gado Muhammad, Vice Chairman of the Governing Council of GCRP and copied to the Ghana News Agency in Accra.

It said it is important for the citizenry to know that the biometric registration exercise is their civic right and religious duty, hence the need for them to register in order to vote in the December General Election.

Alhaji Muhammad said, the GCRP would represent the National Association of Charismatic and Christian Churches, Ghana Pentecostal Council, Ahmadiyya Muslim Mission, Office of the National Chief Imam, Federation of Muslim Councils, Christian Council of Ghana, Council of Independent Churches and the Council of African Indigenous Churches in the exercise.
