The Daily Graphic calls for a goodwill among political parties and other stakeholders to resolve issues relating the existing voters register. The Paper adds its voice to Dr Paa Kwesi Nduom's call that relying on a strengthened National Identification Authority (NIA) to issue out unique identification number for all Ghanaians for universal transactions, including voter registration is commendable. The Paper therefore calls for an all hands on deck to help the Electoral Commission arrive at a consensus. 

The Times expresses worry about the mistreatment of the Black Queens compared to their male counterparts (the Black Stars). Making reference to the recent gold medal won by the Black Queens at the just ended 2015 All Africa Games, the Paper notes that their bonuses have not been paid. As a result the team has refused to leave the hotel where they are lodging. The Paper also notes that even though female footballers are not favoured when it comes to their welfare they continue to sacrifice without getting their due reward. The Ghanaian Times therefore calls on the Ministry of Sports, the Ghana Football Association (GFA) and handlers of the team to solve the problem as soon as possible. It adds that the national women footballers have endured enough and have tolerated the authorities for far too long and deserve every pesewa owed them.
