In a related development, Benjamin Xornam Glover, reports from Bolgatanga that candidates for the NDC, seeking elections to represent their constituents in parliament have been cautioned against attempts to hoard or camp delegates ahead of the primaries.

A statement issued by the Regional Chairman of the party, Alhaji Mumuni Bol-naba, said the act was at variance with the party’s guidelines and position on the conduct of campaigns, warning that any aspirant caught in such an act would be dealt with accordingly.

He said per the party’s guidelines, the audited delegates list had been issued out to all aspirants to enable them have access to all delegates in the course of their campaigns.

Hoarding or camping of delegates by one candidate would therefore amount to denying other aspirants or candidates access to such delegates.

He also advised delegates to desist from and reject any attempt by any aspirant to camp or hoard them stressing that it would not only deny them access to fair assessment of their choice but amount to an insult to their sense of judgement and responsibility.

The regional chairman entreated both aspirants and delegates to cooperate to ensure successful primaries throughout the region.
