Accra, August 24 GNA – Voting is ongoing at
the Okaikoi South National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary primary
election taking place at the Ghana Technology University College (GTUC), near
Tesano.
The two candidates vying for the
parliamentary primary are Mr David Frempong, a Businessman and Mr Abraham Kotei
Neequaye, a Boxing Promoter.
The Electoral Commission (EC) officials
arrived at the venue early and voting started at 7:00 in the morning.
About 1,447 delegates and constituency
executives are expected to cast their ballot in the ongoing NDC parliamentary
primary election.
Ms Helen Yaa Nkrumah, Women’s Organiser for
NDC in the Okaikoi South constituency speaking to the GNA stated that the voting
process had so far been smooth without any challenge.
She was optimistic that the ongoing
elections would be free and fair for all the candidates taking part in the
exercise.
She said it would be very difficult to
predict which of the candidates would win the elections since the two
contestants are all formidable members of the party with unique appeals to the
delegates.
