The constituency primaries for the New Patriotic Party (NPP), originally scheduled to be held between 21st to 24th February 2018, has now been slated for Saturday 24th February to Tuesday, February 27.
“This decision has been necessitated by a number of compelling reasons including some important commitments of the party, government as well as the party’s Members of Parliament in the august house, all of which coincide with the original dates for the Constituency Annual Delegates Conference, otherwise known as the constituency primaries,” according to a statement issued by Acting NPP General Secretary, John Boadu.
The party has asked the various Constituency Elections Committee (CEC), candidates, delegates and indeed every stakeholder of the party to act accordingly.
“At a press conference in Accra last week, John Boadu said persons who wished to be elected as constituency executives should pay to the chairperson of the Constituency Elections Committee a non-refundable nomination fee of two hundred Ghana cedis(GH¢ 200) for the chairperson position and one hundred Ghana cedis (GH¢ 100) for other positions”.
