Ebenezer Okletey Terlabi deputy designate for the Interior and deputy Trade, Agribusiness and Industry designate Sampson Ahi would be last for the day.

Investigation conducted by Ghanamps.com revealed that security would be very tight at the precinct of Parliament following the chaos that happened during the vetting of then Ministers designate where unauthorised members of the public besieged the Committee Room 1 and 2.

The nominees have been admonished to invite only ten visitors to the Committee Room and the number of media personnel to be allowed to the Committee Room has also been limited.
