A screamer headline on the front page of the Ghanaian Democrat says ?Ablekuma to fall to NDC- Huudu?. The paper reports Alhaji Huudu Yahaya, General Secretary of the NDC as saying that the unfortunate death of Mr C.A. Crabbe the NPP Member of Parliament for Ablekuma Central in Accra, has given ?us another chance to claim a seat that is rightly ours?. The paper says this view was expressed when it contacted Alhaji Yahaya on the preparation being made by the ruling NDC towards a bye-election occasioned by Mr Crabbe?s death on February10, this year. Alhaji Yahaya is reported as saying that the NPP was lucky to have won the seat in the last general electionin December, 1996, because of the refusal of the pro-NDC Independent candidate, Mr Cornelius Adablah to step down for the NDC candidate, Alhaji Ismail Bawa. Accordidng to Alhaji Yahaya, the NDC is not taking chances this time saying the party would win back the seat and prove to everyone that the NDC remains the most popular and strongest party.
