The New Patriotic Party has impressed upon some potential aspirants in the upcoming by-election in the Ejisu Constituency to shelve their interests. At least 18 aspirants were said to be lacing their boots to contest the vacant parliamentary seat, following the death of the Member of Parliament for the area, John Ampotuah Kumah, who, until his demise, was Deputy Finance Minister. Some of the potential aspirants have been in a closed-door meeting with former Majority Leader Osei Kyei-Mensah-Bonsu on behalf of the party.
