WifiWizard.getCurrentSSID not binding to input field value

Ionic Framework ionic-v3

Hi
I have this page.html:

<form #form="ngForm" (ngSubmit)="submit(form.value)" class="list">
  <ion-list>
  <ion-item>
<ion-label fixed>SSID</ion-label>
<ion-input name="ssid" type="text"  [(ngModel)]="currentSSID"></ion-input>
  </ion-item>
  <ion-item>
<ion-label fixed>Password</ion-label>
<ion-input name="passwd" ngModel type="password"></ion-input>
  </ion-item>

  <ion-item>
  <ion-label>SSID Hidden?</ion-label>
  <ion-select name="notHidden" ngModel>
  <ion-option value="NO">NO</ion-option>
  <ion-option value="YES">YES</ion-option>
  </ion-select>
</ion-item>
<ion-item>
  <button ion-button type="submit" block>Add Device
	  <ion-icon name="md-add"></ion-icon>
	  </button>
</ion-item>
</ion-list>   
</form>

And in my ts file I have this:

import { Component } from '@angular/core';
import { NavController, NavParams } from 'ionic-angular';
import { LoadingController } from 'ionic-angular';

declare var WifiWizard;

@Component({
  selector: 'page-add-device',
  templateUrl: 'add-device.html'
})
export class AddDevicePage {

value: any;
currentSSID: string; 
    constructor(public navCtrl: NavController, public navParams: NavParams , public loadingCtrl: LoadingController, public platform:Platform) {
WifiWizard.getCurrentSSID(this.ssidHandler, this.fail);
  }
ssidHandler(s) {
    alert(s)
    this.currentSSID=s;
}
fail(e){
    alert("Please connect to your local WIFI ");
} 
}

I really cant figure out why isn’t the this.currentSSID=s putting the ssid value in the input field…
If I go and place this: this.currentSSID=‘testing 123’ in the beginning of the constructor it is binding to the ssid input field.
