The National Democratic Congress would witness series of surprises in their upcoming primaries, Mr, Ben Ephson has predicted. The managing editor of the Daily Dispatch Newspaper and pollster made this remark on Radio Ghana's Uniiq Breakfast Drive. On November 7th 2015, members of the ruling National Democratic Congress would visit the polls to elect their Flagbearer and Parliamentary candidates for next year�s General Elections. Per the modalities for the party�s upcoming parliamentary and presidential primaries, nominations will open on the 27th August and close on 10th September. The ruling party has also decided that, all registered members will have the opportunity to exercise their franchise, thereby scrapping the Electoral College that earlier existed. The party�s decision to expand their Electoral College gives Mr. Ephson the assurance that candidates would find it difficult influencing delegates to vote for them. He claims majority of card-bearing members of the party will determine the winners at the constituencies.
