Institute of Economic Affairs (IEA) has set the dates for two presidential debates on October 22 and November 19, 2024.

These events are part of several political engagements planned ahead of the December 7 elections.

In a recent statement, the IEA revealed that, in addition to the two presidential debates, a vice presidential debate is scheduled for November 5, 2024, along with five "Evening Encounters" designed to engage political leaders.

The first of these encounters will take place on Wednesday, September 18, with the final one set for Tuesday, October 15.

However, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has indicated that their presidential candidate will not participate, citing concerns over the trustworthiness of the IEA as the organising body.
