Twelve constituencies who were to vote in the\u00a0National Democratic Congress (NDC) primaries\u00a0for today [Saturday] November 21, have had their voting rescheduled for\u00a0[Sunday], \u00a0the National Organizer of the party, Kofi Adams has confirmed\u00a0to Citi News<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”ZtAxjgtHhPGmGvcAvqidr5U2TKEqB12Q”]This is as a result of anomalies and other irregularities identified during the voting process in the affected\u00a0constituencies on\u00a0Saturday.<\/p>\n

\u201cConstituencies like New Edubiase, Bosomtwi, Agona, Tepa and others,\u00a0had shortages with parliamentary ballot papers so they have also suspended the entire voting and would also be voting tomorrow [Sunday]. So in the Ashanti Region, we are talking about 12 constituencies that will be voting tomorrow\u00a0[Sunday].<\/p>\n

\u201cIn Greater Accra, only one constituency was suspended and they will have their right to vote tomorrow\u00a0[Sunday]and that is Ningo Prampram,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n

According to Kofi Adams, although voting\u00a0in Akwatia in the Eastern Region has also been suspended , the party has not yet given a specific date for another election because \u201cit has nothing to do with voting materials.\u201d<\/p>\n

Suspension of polls in the Ashanti Region follows a similar action taken at the Ningo Prampram constituency after one of the aspirants, Sam George, alleged that his name and that of 3,000 others, had been deleted<\/a><\/strong> <\/span>from the register.<\/p>\n

That constituency is also expected to hold its elections on Sunday.\u00a0The primary in the Kumbungu Constituency<\/strong> <\/a><\/span>of the Northern Region, has also been postponed to Sunday November 22.<\/p>\n
