Armah-Kofi Buah given the nod to represent Ellembelle
Member of Parliament (MP) for Ellembelle, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah has been given the nod to contest the 2020 parliamentary elections on the ticket of the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
This makes it the fourth time the incumbent MP will represent Ellembelle in Parliament should he win the 2020 parliamentary elections.
Addressing delegates after his victory, the incumbent MP expressed his gratitude to the delegates for the high level of confidence reposed in him.
He noted “This is my fourth time and once again the delegates have remained faithful. The delegates have made the right decision. I am greatly humbled by this overwhelming endorsement. ”
He added “Our goal is one and that is to continue to make Ellembelle no-go area for the NPP. ”
The incumbent MP had nine hundred and ninety-three out of 1,095 votes cast.
Ellembelle was one of two constituencies in the Western Region that had the parliamentary primaries put on hold.
This was due to an unresolved petition against an aspirant, Mieza Mea Alleah.
Mr. Mea Alleah was accused of forging signatures on his nomination form.
But the Functional Executive Committee (FEC) of the party cleared him for the contest.
