In the Upper East Region, Delegates of the People’s National Convention, (PNC) at the ongoing National Delegates Congress have given former Member of Parliament for Bolgatanga Central Constituency, David Apasera a major boost by overwhelmingly endorsing his candidature as flagbearer of the party.
The two term MP polled 147 votes beating of competition from Samson Asaki Awingobit who had 42 with Rev. Samuel Adjei a former campaign manager of 2016 flagbearer, Edward Mahama now Ambassador at large getting 20 votes.
Mr. Apasera is highly tipped to win the PNC flagbearer race but will need to win in the other 15 regions to lead the party into the 2020 general elections.
Meanwhile, the Chairman of the party, Bernard Mornah who is hoping to lead the party again, lost in the upper east Region. He polled 57 votes losing in the region to Moses Dani Baah, a former Member of Parliament for the Sissala East constituency in the Upper West Region who polled 151 votes.
Below is results for the six positions and how the aspirants performed.
