Flagbearer aspirant of the People's National Convention (PNC), Bernard Mornah is leading in the Greater Accra region following the party's national executive election and presidential primaries held at the UDS guest house in Accra.
Announcing the results, the Greater Accra Regional Director of the Electoral Commission (EC), Gladys Pinkrah, revealed that the incumbent chairman, David Apasera, Mr Mornah’s main contender, secured 19 votes, while Mr Mornah achieved a significant victory with 137 votes.
In a parallel contest for the national chairmanship, Samson Awingobit also emerged victorious in the Greater Accra region, securing 106 votes, with his contender Hajia Hajara Ali garnering 55 votes.
Before the voting, Bernard Mornah expressed his confidence in winning, citing his track record as a politician and his contributions to the party.
Speaking to UTV after casting his vote, Mornah declared, “I am the people's President and I am excited about the turn of events so far."
He also promised to be a revolutionary leader, envisioning a future where Ghana's local dialects would become national languages.
The PNC Congress, which was initially scheduled to start at 9 am, faced delays due to an injunction filed from David Apasera’s camp. However, the party managed to resolve the dispute, allowing the Congress to proceed smoothly.
