The New
Patriotic Party (NPP) will from Tuesday, July 11 open nominations for
parliamentary primaries in constituencies where the party has no
representation.
The nomination
will close on Thursday, August 10 with elections expected to be held from
September to December.
The party
indicates that male aspiring parliamentary candidates must submit a
non-refundable filing fee of GH¢35,000 while women and persons with
disabilities would pay 50% of the fee.
Aspirants have
been urged to act according to the dictates of the party’s constitution and use
the appropriate procedure to channel any grievances that may arise.
Setting a date
for the party’s internal contests was marred by delays as the National
Executive Council found it difficult to set a date for the elections and had
to revise
its initial calendar.
