Fifteen parliamentary candidates of the National Democratic Party (NDP), in the Volta Region have successfully filed their nominations to contest in the 2012 polls.
This is in spite of the disqualification of the party’s flagbearer, Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings; a case the party says it will vehemently contest in court.
Deputy Communications Director of the NDP, Dr. Hilarious Abiwu told Joy News the NDP would know by Monday the full list of its qualified candidates nationwide.
“We had paid for 190 Parliamentary candidates; however, after the close of nominations, we have not yet received a confirmation on whether the various persons we had paid for actually filed successfully,” he said.
“But for the Volta region, as at this morning, the information we got from the Regional Chairman was that fifteen of those who had put their names forward had filed successfully at the close of nomination,” Dr. Hilarious Abiwu added.
The NDP Deputy Communications Director said, “We are expecting that by Monday we should have the full details of the numbers that were able to file completely as at the close of nominations.”
