We have been able to reduce the costs in Accra by 14.3 per cent compared to last year's event. Unfortunately ,For Kumasi, we have not been able to reduce the costs by our target of 12 per cent – the costs have instead increased by 2.2 per cent due to inflation, increasing costs of the hire of the venue and increased advertising efforts.

The participation fees stated above incorporate a 'credit crunch' contingency and are the maximum that participants will be charged. If this additional contingency is not called upon, participants will be invoiced for less than the maximum fee.
