The Member of Parliament
(MP) for Ablekuma West Madam Ursula Owusu-Ekuful will tomorrow April 9,
2016, slug it out with one other aspirant who is seeking to unseat her
in order to represent the opposition New Patriotic Party (NPP) as its
parliamentary candidate in the area.
The Ablekuma West Constituency in the
Greater Accra Region is one of the few constituencies in the country the
NPP is yet to conduct parliamentary primary following series of
disagreements.
Constituency executives after smoking
the peace pipe with aggrieved factions, set April 9 for the primary with
Roni Nicole and Teo Tetteh lacing their boots to give the incumbent a
run for her money.
Even though, the dust seems to have
settled, Theophilus Tetteh, a former Constituency Chairman who is a
contender failed to turn up for the vetting with an official
communication to the regional chairman indicating his unpreparedness to
be part of the process.
NPP Director of Elections Martin Adjei
Mensah Korsah noted Mr. Tetteh has not been disqualified though he is
not part of the polls.
According to him, he could only be
disqualified if he had turned up for the vetting and the committee was
unsatisfied, but his failure to partake in the process indicates he
would not be part of the election.
Notice of poll shows the incumbent
Member of Parliament, Ursula Owusu-Ekuful and Mr. Roni Nicole are the
aspirants in tomorrow’s polls.
