Hajia Amina Adam, widow of the late Ayawaso East Member of Parliament, Mahama Naser Toure, has formally filed her nomination to contest the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary slot ahead of the by-election in the constituency, scheduled for March 3.
Hajia Amina Adam will face five other contenders, including Ghana’s High Commissioner to Nigeria, Baba Jamal Mohammed Ahmed, in the race for the NDC ticket.
