Samuel Binfo Darkwa has filed his nominations forms to contest incumbent Member of Parliament for Adansi Asokwa in the upcoming primaries of the NPP.
The former (NUGS) president was accompanied by delegates and other sympathizers of the party in a huge float amidst singING and drumming on principal streets of the Adansi Asokwa community through the party’s constituency office.
The forms were received by the chairman council of elders in the constituency, Nana Kwadwo Nkansah, who doubles as elections committee chairman, and the constituency secretary Kwame Awi in the presence of all the constituency executives.

Chairman of the constituency Kwame Owusu, commended the young politicians for the bold step taken to contest long-serving experience K.T Hammond in the primaries.
