Minority Leader, Haruna Iddrisu has debunked a claim by Deputy Minority Whip that the leadership of the Minority caucus in Parliament has decided to support the candidature of Johnson Asiedu Nketia as Party Chairman.

Ahmed Ibrahim during the launch of Johnson Asiedu Nketia’s campaign on Tuesday is reported to have said that the Minority Caucus was supporting the General Secretary for the position of Chairman of the Party.

But the Minority in a statement denied the assertions by the Banda MP.

It said, “the leadership of the [Minority] Caucus has no position on any of the candidates vying for the respective positions in the party.”

“The Leadership of the Caucus never met on the matter and has not taken any decision on the matter. That the Caucus has not met and has not taken any decision on any of the candidates contesting any position within the Party,” the Minority said.

They urged the public and the rank and file of the party to disregard the statement by Ahmed Ibrahim.

Haruna Iddrisu urged all Members of the Caucus to refrain from making such comments in the immediate future.

The party will elect its national executives on December 17.

Aspirants have already picked their nomination forms and are expected to complete the forms within two weeks and file their nominations between November 5 and 6, 2022.

The regional elections will be held on November 12 and 13, 2022.
