Adansi Asokwa Member of Parliament, Kobina Tahir Hammond, has doubled his efforts to disqualify opponents in the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) parliamentary primaries.
After an initial petition against his main opponent, Sammy Binfoh Darkwa was dismissed by the Ashanti Regional Vetting Committee, the Trades Minister has now taken his case to the National Vetting Committee.
In his petition, Hammond claims that all three opponents, including Sammy Binfoh Darkwa, are ineligible to contest the primaries based on Articles 12(4) and (7) of the party’s constitution.
He further alleges that all the aspirants are not card-bearing members of the governing party and have not contributed to the progress of the party in the Ashanti Region town.
The campaign for the January 27 primaries is heating up as aspirants intensify their engagements with delegates.
