THE People’s National Convention (PNC) has elected a 28-year-old secretary to contest as its Parliamentary candidate for the Jirapa Constituency in the Upper West Region.
Miss Jane-Francis Galyuon, who polled 17 out of the 21 votes cast to get the nod, would thus rub shoulders with political veterans like Mr Edward Salia of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the incumbent, and Mr Justin Dakorah of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), the Jirapa District Chief Executive.
Her rival contestant, Mr Abu Arthur, a teacher, polled four of the votes in the election supervised by Mr Jackson Annor, the electoral officer in charge of Jirapa.
In an address, the Upper West Regional Chairman of the PNC, Dr Gilbert Dabori Bainye, called on all PNC supporters and sympathisers to abide by the motto of the party, “service with honesty".
To this end, he urged all true PNC members to go by all the rules and regulations governing elections in the country to ensure a trouble-free general election in December.
"The December elections is for a winner and not for tricksters who have more money," Dr Bailey stated, and added that "we must not vote for money but for the best and most competent candidate”.
He described Dr Edward Mahama, the flag bearer of the PNC, as the best presidential aspirant with the best ideas, and that when the PNC was given the chance in December, it would add value to sheanuts.
