The Upper East Regional Communication Officer of the Opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) Mr. Abdallah Salifu has re-established massive confidence in possibly recapturing the only parliamentary seat captured by the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Binduri Constituency. Speaking exclusively to Mr. Ngamegbulam Chidozie Stephen of Apexnewsgh.com, the NDC Regional Communication Officer described some of the initiatives embarked so far by the current Binduri Member of Parliament Abdulai Abanga as a non-starter. “If is about what they are doing in that constituency, is a non-starter. In the past, people like Lawyer Kpemka, and Tangoba Abayage who were government appointees just like the current MP for Binduri and people thought picking those seats back from the NPP was going to be a very difficult task but, it turned out to be one of the easiest constituencies we won in 2020”. Explaining what led to their party defeat in 2020 at the Binduri Constituency, he pointed out internal wrangling as the main cause for their defeat”. He explained “Binduri is our stronghold, that our defeat had to do with internal wrangling, that is just all about it. The internal wrangling started from constituency elections and then traveled all the way to the regional election and because we have a very powerful person in Binduri contested also for the regional Chairmanship. So, when he lost, and some of his favorites also lost at the constituency level, it travels to the Parliamentary primary with another candidate and the candidate also lost. So, the anger within them, made them not to work for the NDC. That was why we lost the seat nothing more”. “Currently part of the problem is been resolved and I believe immediately after the primaries, the problem in its entirety will be resolved. You see, they are human beings, they also have reasons and concerns. So, those concerns are been addressed and I believe those concerns will be fully addressed after the primaries, for us to have a very united front in Binduri”. “For the internal wrangling, it happens to both political parties and if you check in the last election our Navrongo candidate was the person who got more votes than President Mahama in Navrongo. “So, it simply tells you that we enjoy some leverage from their internal wrangling and it was all because Kofi Adda died and people thought Madam Tangoba came as an intruder or through the back door to take the seat from them. She is contesting anyway, we here is a contest between Alhaji Abdallah and the current MCE Mr. Joseph Adongo and we are monitoring them closely”.
