NPP elections: Mohammed Adam Bantima Samba retained as Northern Regional Chair

Mohammed Adam Bantima Samba has been re-elected as the Northern Regional Chairman of the New Patriotic Party.

The party’s regional executive election which took place on Friday, May 27, 2022, was not without drama as some six persons were arrested by police for engaging in suspicious activities at the conference venue, the Aliu Mahama Sports Stadium in Tamale.

Citi News’ Diana Ngon reported that there were some agitations about the inclusion of some names of TESCON members who weren’t delegates.

“The eligibility of some persons were contested, and some of the names were taken out of the list of about 26, so in the end 16 TESCON members voted but so far, everything has ended and the place is calm,” she reported.

Below is the full results:
