The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the New Patriotic Party has unanimously confirmed Dr. Tia Abdul-Kabiru Mahama as the party’s parliamentary candidate for the Walewale constituency.

This decision was made following a meeting held on Wednesday, September 11, 2024, at the Alisa Hotel in Accra.
The confirmation follows the withdrawal of Lariba Zuweira Abudu, the incumbent Member of Parliament and one of the two initial candidates, from the parliamentary primary on Tuesday, September 10. With Abudu’s withdrawal, Dr. Tia Abdul-Kabiru Mahama became the sole candidate for the contest.

“The Party regards in high esteem, the decision of Hon. Zuweira to bow out of the race and appeals to all stakeholders of the Walewale constituency to offer their unflinching support to the candidacy of Dr. Tia Abdul-Kabiru Mahama,” a statement from NEC on Wednesday confirmed.
“May God bless our homeland Ghana and make the New Patriotic Party great and strong,” NPP said.
