NPP executives in the Okaikoi South constituency have canceled the parliamentary primaries held there on the 30th of April. The party’s leadership in the constituency say there were some discrepancies in the electoral process, and it was therefore necessary to cancel the results.<\/p>\n
One of the aspirants, Vicky Bright had earlier challenged the election results, which show that she lost to Ahmed Arthur. According to Ms Bright, the voting process was flawed and accompanied by foul play.<\/p>\n
Delegates of the New Patriotic Party in 220 constituencies, voted for candidates who would represent the party in the 2012 elections. The elections although generally peaceful, was characterised by some discrepancies with one of such leading to the cancellation of the Okaikoi South elections.<\/p>\n
Constituency chairperson for Okaikoi south, Vivian Adai told Citi News a petition has been sent to the NPP headquarters, indicating that the election process was flawed since a wrong delegates\u2019 register was used for the elections.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe album that was used was a wrong album and being the constituency chairman, I\u2019ve sent a petition to the head of our hierarchy to see to it so that peace would prevail in our constituency. We have a constituency album which is for the delegates with photographs\u201d, she told Citi News.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
