The National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Wednesday spiked rumours that it would withdraw its candidate from the Navrongo Central bye-election and support the People’s National Convention (PNC) candidate.
“The National Executive Committee wishes to refute the bogus propaganda going on in some sections of the media that the NDC will withdraw its candidate for the Navrongo Central by-election and support the PNC candidate,” the NDC said in a statement released in Accra.
“We wish to make it categorically clear that the NDC will contest the election in the candidature of Mr Clement Bugase,” the statement signed by Dr Nii Josiah-Aryeh, general secretary of the NDC said.
The NDC said third campaign is already on course and called on all members, supporters and sympathisers to disregard the negative propaganda and continue to work hard to capture the seat.
The seat became vacant following the death of the MP Mr John Achuliwor, through a motor accident. He was also the Deputy Minister of Communication and Technology.
