The New Patriotic Party (NPP) has officially confirmed Dr. Tia Abdul-Kabiru Mahama as its parliamentary candidate for the Walewale constituency.
This decision was adopted at a National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting on Wednesday, September 11, 2024.
The confirmation comes after the withdrawal of Lariba Zuweira Abudu, the current Member of Parliament and one of two candidates in the parliamentary primary.
With Zuweira’s resignation, Dr. Mahama emerged as the only candidate for the position.
The NPP applauded Zuweira’s decision to withdraw and urged all stakeholders in the Walewale constituency to fully support Dr. Mahama’s candidature.
The NPP confirmed this in a statement signed and delivered by its General Secretary, Justin Koduah Frimpong.
