About 1,047 delegates are voting in a parliamentary primary to elect a candidate who will represent the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the by-election slated for March 3.
The by-election became necessary due to the death of the incumbent Member of Parliament, Mahama Nasser Toure.
The candidates vying for the NDC slot are; Mohammed Ramme, the NDC Constituency Chairman; Amina Adam, widow of the late Member of Parliament; Baba Jamal Mohammed Ahmed, Ghana’s High Commissioner to Nigeria; Yakubu Azindow; and Najib Mohammed.
The winner will slug it out with candidates from the New Patriotic Party and others on March 3.
