Chief Akilu Sayibu
A member of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Tolon Constituency of the Northern Region, Chief Akilu Sayibu, has stated that the party should not organise parliamentary primaries in the constituency.
Chief Akilu Sayibu, who expressed interest in parliamentary primaries in the Tolon Constituency in the last primaries, explained that the strategy of the party amongst other strategies should be to discourage primaries in the Tolon Constituency at this time.
According to the former deputy CEO of Ghana Export Promotion Authority, the party’s Member of Parliament (MP), Mr. Habib Iddrisu, should be supported to retain the seat in the 2028 elections.
“I have no intention at all of contesting parliamentary primaries in the Tolon Constituency at this time,” Chief Akilu Sayibu disclosed.
“My view is that all logistics and other resources that should be used for acrimonious parliamentary primaries should rather be channelled towards branding the party and the MP as ones ready for battle in 2028,” he stressed.
The former Tamale North Parliamentary Candidate of the NPP has, therefore, called on his fans, family, and loved ones to ignore any social or traditional media publications to this effect.
According to him, Mr. Habib Iddrisu should rather be supported to continue with his good works to retain the seat for the party, and to help make Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia President in 2028.
Chief Akilu Sayibu revealed that he would embark on a media tour to drum home this position.
