NPP Tema West Constituency Elections Nullified

The Greater Accra Regional secretariat of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has nullified the Tema West Constituency congress elections held on October 27.

A letter signed by the Regional First vice-Chairman, Lieutenant-Colonel S. Addei-Duah said the constituency executives did not comply with the requirements for the exercise. The letter recapped the requirements, which include the submission of contestants' names one week ahead of the congress date, among others.

It said the regional office was not represented at the congress because it realised that the constituency had not met the requirements, and hence could not have gone ahead with the congress. The regional secretariat said it would set a new date for the Congress when they meet all the conditions.
