The affected constituencies are Zebila, Talensi, Abuakwa North, Sisala East, Sisala West, Sege, Nkawkaw, Bosome Freho, Obom-Domeabra and Bekwai.
Party officials say the decision to delay the primaries in the 10 constituencies is strategic and is in the best interest of the party.
Deputy Communications Director of the party, Perry Okudzeto told JOY NEWS members at the constituency level are satisfied with this decision .
