The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has withdrawn Nurein Shiabu Migyimah as its parliamentary candidate for Assin Central. The decision follows his conviction on charges of immoral acts and anti-party activities.
The NDC’s Central Regional Functional Executive Committee (R-FEC) received numerous complaints against Migyimah, prompting an exhaustive investigation and deliberation process.
After careful consideration, the committee decided to revoke his candidacy effective immediately.
In a letter addressed to the Assin Central chairman of the NDC, the R-FEC announced that Migyimah would be suspended for six months pending further adjudication by the Regional Disciplinary Committee.
This suspension extends to his party membership as well, which will remain inactive until a final decision is made.
