For Immediate Release
NPP ELECTS PARLIAMENTARY CANDIDATES IN ORPHAN CONSTITUENCIES IN THE NORTH EAST REGION
The New Patriotic Party in the North East Region earlier today held parliamentary elections in the Bunkpurugu constituency and the Nalerigu-Gambaga constituency to elect its parliamentary candidates for the 2024 elections.
At the end of polls, the good delegates of the Bunkpurugu constituency elected Hon. Solomon Namliit Boar while the good delegates of the Nalerigu-Gambaga constituency elected Alhaji Mumuni Mohammed Nurudeen to lead the two constituencies respectively. The regional Chairman and leadership of the party in the region therefore wish to congratulate the two victors for fighting uphill battles to earn the trust of delegates leading to their election to become the party’s parliamentary candidates for their respective constituencies.
To the unsuccessful aspirants, we say thank you for accepting the outcome of the elections without any rancor and acrimony. You gave your best shots and fought good battles but unfortunately, you weren’t successful. As patriots, keep in mind that there are many other ways by which you can serve the party.
To the winners and their supporters, be measured in your jubilations as it’s good to be magnanimous in victory. This is the time to build bridges and so it’s expected of you to do everything humanly possible to foster unity in the party. Do take the necessary steps to bring all your unsuccessful contenders on board for us to be able to prosecute successful campaigns in the two constituencies. This is so important particularly because of the keenly nature of the contests with very narrow wins.
The leadership of the party also wishes to thank all aspirants for conducting clean and peaceful campaigns which culminated into the free, fair and transparent elections we witnessed in the two constituencies. We also want to thank the electoral commission for being professional in the discharge of your duties.
Again, we wish to express our utmost gratitude to the Ghana Police Service and all the security agencies who contributed immensely to making the process a great success.
Now the intra party contest is over in these constituencies and what’s left is for us to close our ranks and prepare to face our main opponent, the NDC. History shows that whenever we’re able to unite very well, we win in these constituencies. And knowing very well that the 2024 elections is a crucial one, this is the time we need unity more than ever.
We entreat the leadership of the party in the two constituencies to take immediate steps to unite the party and hit the ground running.
Congratulations once again to the victors. Remember that the battle remains the Lord’s.
….Signed….
Walibe Amos
