The three who have so far been able to meet the December 5 deadline apart from Mr Mahama are Joshua Alabi, Stephen Atubiga and Sylvester Mensah.

Some eight other contestants had petitioned the National Executive Committee over the fees being charged for the forms but it appears even before a decision is taken on the petition, the door is almost closed on them.
