National Democratic Congress (NDC) Parliamentary Candidate-elect for the Ayawaso East Constituency, Baba Jamal, says his rising support among party delegates is rooted in integrity and commitment to service rather than inducement.
He noted that the initiatives he has undertaken in the constituency have contributed significantly to his growing popularity.
Baba Jamal made this known in a statement following his first appearance on Monday, February 9, 2026, before the committee probing alleged vote-buying during last Saturday’s primaries of the party in the constituency.
Reaffirming his innocence in the matter, Baba Jamal said he is admired and supported because of the numerous initiatives he has undertaken to secure better representation for Ayawaso East in Parliament.
“My growing popularity among our cherished party supporters in the constituency is a result of the initiatives I have undertaken, my integrity, and our shared commitment to securing better representation for Ayawaso East in Parliament,” he stressed.
He pledged further dedication to bringing meaningful development to Ayawaso East and improving the lives of its people.
Baba Jamal also expressed gratitude to delegates of the constituency for electing him to lead the NDC into the upcoming by-election.
His election has, however, come under scrutiny following claims of vote-buying, which led to his recall as Ghana’s Ambassador to Nigeria and calls for the annulment of the election outcome.
