NPP Primaries: See results and full list of winners in Upper East Region

Ten orphan constituencies in the Upper East Region took part in the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary primaries yesterday (2^nd December, 2023).

In total, 27 aspirants took part in the election which was generally peaceful as there were no reported cases of chaos in any of the constituencies.

The Navrongo central constituency had the highest number of five contenders in the region. The exercise in the constituency began and ended peacefully. The situation was not different in the Chiana-Paga, Bolgatanga, Builsa South, Nabdam, Talensi and Tempane constituencies, among others.

At the end of the election, the key message that run through all the constituencies was the call on the party faithful to disband all factions and unite immediately to enable the party win as many parliamentary seats in the region as possible in the upcoming general elections in 2024.

Meanwhile, Parliamentary candidates in constituencies such as Builsa North, Bolgatanga East and Pusiga, according to the New Patriotic Party, will go into the general election unopposed. The primary election in Bawku has also been put on hold in what appears to be due to the conflict in the area.

Also, the Member of Parliament for Binduri, where the NPP was able to win a seat in the 2020 election, will also go unopposed.
