NPP Clarifies Manhyia North and Kumawu Constituency Elections

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) will, from today 28th April, 2022 to 2nd May 2022, hold its annual delegates conference to elect executives in its 250 constituency branches.

Each constituency is expected to choose a suitable date within the given period to conduct the conference and hold the elections under the supervision of the Electoral Commission of Ghana per the party’s rules and regulations.

About 25 constituencies cannot partake in the elections, following petitions and court cases levelled against the party by some aggrieved members including Manhyia North and Kumawu Constituencies.

Speaking on the Neat FM, the party’s Director of Elections, Evans Nimako stated; “The conferences at Kumawu and Manhyia constituencies in the Ashanti Region are on hold due to petitions and court cases brought by some aggrieved members of the party. Manhyia North, for instance after court settlement, they will also have the opportunity to cast their vote in the constituency.” 

He urged members of the party to abide by the rules and regulations governing the elections for successful conference.
