The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has confirmed it will contest the Akwatia by-election scheduled for September 2, 2025, while accusing the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of using recent political decisions to sway public sentiment.
The statement comes in the wake of the NPP's decision not to field a candidate in the upcoming Tamale Central Parliamentary by-election.
The by-election follows the tragic death of the area's Member of Parliament, Alhaji Dr.
Murtala Mohammed, who perished in the August 6 helicopter crash.
