LIVE VIDEO: IEA Vice-Presidential Debate

Running mates of the four political parties with representation in Parliament are battling it out this evening in a contest of ideas on the Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) debate platform at the Akroma Plaza Hotel in Takoradi. The Vice presidential candidates - Paa Kwesi Amissah-Arthur of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Cherita Sarpong-Kumankuma of the Convention People�s Party (CPP), Helen Sanorita Dzatugbe Matervi of the People�s National Convention (PNC) and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) - have two minutes to answer a substantive question, a minute less than what their bosses had a week ago. IEA officials said there will be three rounds of questions, and answer sessions remain unchanged; so is the number of rebuttals allotted to the various candidates. The questions are from the public and will focus primarily on the economy, good governance, social sector, private sector development and natural resource management.
