Speaking during the BICA President Cocktail event, Swaniker-Tettey said they are facing resistance to renewing BICA membership and complying with the renewal period from some eligible members. “We aim to have all our members renew their membership annually, hence why we continuously engage suspended members to highlight the importance of registration,” she said.
