NPP Primaries: Habib Iddrisu set to retain Tolon seat as he goes unopposed

The Member of Parliament for Tolon and Deputy Majority Chief Whip, Habib Iddrisu, is set to face no competition in the upcoming NPP Parliamentary primary scheduled for January 27th in the constituency.

Having assumed office as an MP in 2021, Habib Iddrisu is the sole candidate who submitted his nomination for the primaries before the deadline closed on December 25th, 2023.

During the 2020 election, Habib Iddrisu secured a significant victory by polling 31,429 votes, surpassing the NDC’s Yussif Adamu, who garnered 22,145 votes.

With no contenders in the current primary, Habib Iddrisu is poised to represent the NPP once again. He has pledged to enhance the party’s vote count and support for Dr. Mahamadu Bawumia in the upcoming 2024 election.

“I believe my work as MP for the past three years speaks for itself and I am very sure that is why nobody contested me. The Chiefs and people here in Tolon are happy with me and you can see for yourself “.

On December 2nd, 2023, the NPP conducted primaries in orphan constituencies ahead of the 2024 election.

The January 27th primaries will be the last internal election for the party ahead of 2024 polls.
