Former Member of Parliament for Daboya\/Makarigu Constituency in the Savannah Region,\u00a0 Mahama Shaibu Obey has filed\u00a0 nomination with a vow to re-capture the\u00a0 seat from the New Patriotic Party\u2019s Alhaji Mahama Asei for the National Democratic Congress (NDC).<\/p>\n
Addressing party supporters after going through the process, the private legal practitioner said the major reason he is contesting the primaries is to win back the seat he lost to the New Patriotic Party.<\/p>\n
He called on party faithful to remain calm, united and run a decent internal campaign that will see the party more united to move into the main election in 2024.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very confident the NDC will win the seat in 2024 general elections because almost all projects started by NDC under John Mahama and my own good self,\u00a0 have not been completed yet, seven good years after they (NPP) won power,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He accused the NPP of winning the seat in the 2020 general elections through lies and monetisation of the system, only to later abandon almost all projects started by the NDC.<\/p>\n<\/figure>\n
Mr. Mahama Shaibu Obey noted that, \u201cIndeed, the NPP rode on the back of lies and monetised the whole system to win the elections, even on the day of voting there was money being distributed for peoples\u2019 vote.<\/p>\n
\u201cVirtually\u00a0 all the projects that were started by us (NDC) are still hanging and only your (delegates\u2019) mandate will bring me and the party back to power to complete them and add more for\u00a0 the people of Daboya\/Mankarigu Constituency,\u201d Lawyer Mahama Shaibu stated.<\/p>\n
He also accused the NPP of making the lives of constituents worse, subjecting them to poverty, most especially the rural areas, saying \u201cthese are some of the major reasons why I am coming back. Politics is all about development and bettering the lives of the people.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m coming on board to push for all major projects to be completed and to help better the lives of the people. The constituents are suffering in all sectors. Businesses are collapsing and the socio-economic hardship keeps increasing,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
His nomination forms were received by the party constituency executives.<\/p>\n
At the close of nominations, Wednesday, only two people had filed\u00a0 to contest in the primaries.<\/p>\n
