Ejisu NPP Primary: Kwesi Nyantakyi discharged, shows up at voting centre





Former President of the Ghana Football Association, Kwesi Nyantakyi, has recently been discharged from Legacy Hospital after being admitted for stomach pains ahead of the New Patriotic Party’s parliamentary primary for Ejisu.


Nyantakyi, who is vying for the NPP parliamentary candidacy in the Ejisu Constituency, was hospitalized on Friday evening after complaining of stomach pains to his team. A source from his campaign team confirmed that Nyantakyi was hospitalized for treatment following his complaint. It is believed that his illness may have been exacerbated by not eating all day due to his busy schedule ahead of Saturday’s polls, which included a planned meeting with delegates.


After receiving treatment at Legacy Hospital in Asokore Mampong, Nyantakyi was discharged Saturday morning. Following his discharge, he promptly headed to the voting center to rally delegates to support his bid to replace the late John Kumah.


A total of 1081 delegates are set to decide the fate of nine aspirants vying to represent the New Patriotic Party in the upcoming by-election in the Ejisu Constituency. The party is conducting its parliamentary primary to select a candidate following the passing of the Member of Parliament for Ejisu, John Ampontuah Kumah.


Campaign activities have been intense throughout the week as aspirants engage with delegates to secure their votes. The party is urging both aspirants and delegates to strictly adhere to election guidelines and reiterating calls for aspirants not to encamp delegates.


Ashanti Regional Research and Elections Officer of the NPP, Nana Kofi Owusu, assured that all is in readiness for today’s elections. As the parliamentary primary unfolds, all eyes are on the outcome and the candidate who will carry the party's banner in the upcoming by-election in Ejisu Constituency.
