The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has quashed the withdrawal and suspension of the Parliamentary Candidate for Assin Central, Mr. Nurein Shaibu Migyimah.

"This decision was taken after a meeting with a delegation from the Central Regional Executive body of the party, led by the Regional Chairman, and after hearing the reasons for their purported withdrawal of the party’s PC for the Assin Central constituency," the General Secretary for the NDC, Fifi Kwetey, stated in a press release dated July 3, 2024.

According to him, after carefully examining the facts and circumstances surrounding the matter, the Functional Executive Committee (FEC) established that the purported withdrawal of the PC for Assin Central was unlawful, hence null and void.

"Additionally, it was established that the body that took this unlawful decision had no locus, power, and/or authority to do so per the Constitution of the party.

"More importantly, the reasons underpinning the purported withdrawal of the Assin Central PC were found to be totally false and without any reasonable basis.

"Consequently, the said letter purporting to withdraw the candidacy of the Assin Central Parliamentary candidate for the NDC is a nullity and should be treated with the utmost contempt," Mr. Kwetey stated.
