We Need A Neutral Parliamentary Candidate For Cape Coast North - NDC Member Petitions Party
A staunch member of the largest opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr. Ato Dadzie has appealed to the national leadership of the party to as a matter of urgency select a Parliamentary Candidate for the party to contest the upcoming parliamentary election in the Cape Coast North constituency.
According to him, the constituency needs somebody who will be able to secure the seat for in the upcoming general elections.
In a petition addressed to the National Chairman of the party, he added that some persons are already making moves to be selected as the party's candidate due to the inability of the elected candidate to contest again.
However, all the names coming up are known party members but have contributed to the factionalism in the Cape Coast North constituency.
The Electoral Commission has withdrawn the voters' identification card of the National Democratic Congress’ Parliamentary Candidate, Dr. Kwamena Mintah Nyarku.
The Cape Coast North MP hopeful, Kwamena Mintah Nyarku allegedly gave false information when registering for his Voter ID card.
This led to the Commission withdrawing his Voters' ID card.
The card withdrawal decision by the EC might prevent Mr. Nyarku from contesting for the 2020 parliamentary seat of the Cape Coast North constituency since he may not have a Voters' ID card when the nominations and registration opens.
The electoral laws of Ghana disallow persons to contest for a year’s election if the individual is not a registered voter.
Kwamena Mintah Nyarku has the option to appeal the High Court decision for legal redress.
