Emmanuel Max-Voy and Henry Ernest Norgbey<\/strong><\/p>\n

The opposition National Democratic
\nCongress (NDC) in the Greater Accra Region has re-opened nominations for its
\nparliamentary primaries in the Ashaiman Constituency following the sudden death
\nof one of the contenders.<\/p>\n

But the chance to contest has been
\nopened to only family members of the late Emmanuel Max-Voy, the only competitor
\nwho was challenging the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) for the area, Henry
\nErnest Norgbey.<\/p>\n

The National Executive Committee
\n(NEC) of the party took the decision. The nomination was opened for four days
\nfrom last Friday August 16, 2019 to Monday, August 19, 2019.<\/p>\n

Confirming
\nthe decision to DAILY GUIDE<\/em><\/strong>, Tony Afenyo, the Ashaiman Constituency chairman of
\nthe party, explained that \u201cthe decision is NEC\u2019s decision and not the decision
\nof the party\u2026\u201d \u00a0\u201cThis is because the
\nwhole thing was pathetic and that is why we decided to open small window for only
\nthe deceased family members,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n

Meanwhile,
\nErnest Norgbey has embraced the decision; he believes the new development will
\ndispel the notion that he wants to go unopposed.<\/p>\n

Mr. Emmanuel Max-Voy, a
\nparliamentary aspirant for the Ashaiman Constituency, died on Sunday, 4th
\nAugust 2019 after filing nomination to contest the primaries in the
\nconstituency.<\/p>\n

He passed away at the Ridge
\nHospital after a short illness.<\/p>\n

Mr. Max-Voy was the founder and CEO
\nof Martin Luther King Jr. Co. Ltd.<\/p>\n

His death heightened tension in the constituency because supporters of the deceased had accused the incumbent of vowing that he was going unopposed even though Mr. Max-Voy was in the contest until his demise.<\/p>\n
