The statement signed by the NDC’s General Secretary, Fifi Fiavi Kwetey, said the party “vehemently condemns” the alleged conduct, calling it an affront to its principles and its ongoing reset agenda.

The party announced it has opened a full-scale investigation into the matter and promised swift action against any candidate found culpable.

It also warned that future incidents could attract tougher sanctions, including the possible cancellation of internal elections.

The primary was organised to select a parliamentary candidate following the death of the sitting MP, Mahama Naser Toure on January 4, 2026.

Five aspirants contested the race: Mohammed Ramne, Hajia Amina Adam, Baba Jamal Mohammed Ahmed, Dr Yakubu Azimdow, and Najib Sani.

There was a heavy security presence at voting centres, but party officials said the process proceeded despite the reported incidents.
