The former Medical Director for the Greater Accra Regional Hospital has filed nomination to contest the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary primary in the Garu constituency of the Upper East Region.
Dr Thomas Anaba on March 21, 2023 filed the nomination forms at the party’s office at Garu to formally declare his intention to contest as a parliamentary candidate.
He is up against two other candidates: the incumbent, Albert Akuka Alalzuuga, and George Mbawini.
In a Facebook post, Dr Anaba expressed gratitude to his teaming supporters for their unflinching support during the process of filing the nomination.
“I want to specifically thank my fellow comrades who worked tirelessly with me to collect the required signatures and ensure that everything was in order. Your dedication and commitment to this cause are truly inspiring, and I could not have done this without you.
