The Former Minister for Gender, Children and Social Protection Nana Oye Lithur has finally submitted nomination forms at the constituency office of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Adentan, Accra.

The process which was supposed to last less than 30 minutes took hours since the aspirant, Madam Oye Lithur had to go for the original copies of the nominations forms which was not with her as at the time she was submitting the forms.

The Adentan constituency executives of the NDC also advised Oye Lithur to consider taking new photos for her flyers since her ears are not evident in the the current pictures.

Oye Lithur who is poised to contest Adentan seat, please was beaming with smiles throughout the submission process.

Nana Oye Lithur would battle it with Mohammed Adams Ramadan, who is also an aspirant file his nomination Thursday morning.

According to sources at the constituency, the third aspirant , Benjamin Anyano has pulled out.

The Adenta parliamentary seat is one of the swing parliamentary seats in the Greater Accra Region with the two major political parties, the NDC and the NPP winning it since it was carved out from the Ashaiman constituency in 2004.

The seat is such that, no elected Member of Parliament had ever held it in two terms in office, except the NDC that managed to retain it but certainly not with the same candidate.

The late Opare Hammond of the NPP, won the seat in 2004 and was the first MP but served only one term.

He was kicked at a national election in 2008 by Mr Kojo Adu Asare of the NDC, but he too did not stay on beyond a term as he was overthrown by his own party man, Emmanuel Nii Ashimoore, in 2012 at the party primaries and went on to retain the seat for the NDC.

Just like his predecessors, Nii Ashimoore too lost the battle at the party primaries in 2015 by Mohammed Adamu Ramadan of the NDC, but unlike Ashimoore who managed to keep the seat after overthrowing his own man Adu Asare, Ramadan failed and Yaw Buabeng Asamoah of the NPP snatched it in 2016.
