Mr Shamsuudeen Baba-Yaro, Bawku Central Constituency Treasurer, who disclosed this to the GNA said they were the only members of the party who filed their nominations when it ended on April 30.
He said each of the candidates paid a non-refundable fee of six million cedis and all were set for the primaries and pledged the commitment of the Party to win the seat.
Mr Baba-Yaro said the primaries had been scheduled for July and called on the contestants to avoid any acts that would cause disunity within the party and accept the results in good faith.
