Senatorial 2018: Four Lists from North West to CPDM Central Committee

 28 contenders are said to have finalized their documents and submitted to the Regional Coordination of the CPDM in the North West Region. The 28 aspiring CPDM contenders according to what we gathered have formed four lists. Sources say the Rt. Hon. Simon Achidi Achu(himself senator) is heading a list of mostly former senators. On the other hand Regina Mundi (member of the CPDM political bureau is also head of another list while JB Ndeh (General Manager of MIDENO) is also leading the third list. In this mad rush, the youths have not been left out. Acting as leaders of today and not tomorrow, Dr. Ndonwie Peter is also finalizing a list of young men and woman who have vowed to flush out the old guards from the senate. The list by the CPDM youths according to a hint is being encouraged by Dr. Nick Ngwanyam and others.

It should be recalled that in 2013 senatorial, the Central Committee of the CPDM selected former Prime Minister Simon Achidi Achu to be the list leader for CPDM candidates of the North West Region. The Central Committee it is worth mentioning selected late Jikong from Nwa (Donga Mantung), Wallang Akwo David from Wum (Menchum), Wanlo John from Bum (Boyo), Awanga Zacharia from Oshie-Ngie (Momo), Eno Emma Lafon from Kumbo (Bui) and Dingha Ignatius from Balikumbat (Ngoketunjia).
What happened in 2013 was that the Central Committee just to removed Fon Chafah’s name from the list he compiled to replace with Simon Achidi Achu while Dingha Ignatius who was in JB Ndeh’s list was brought in to replace Dr. Doh Anderson. The maneuvers sparked a lot of controversy among North West CPDM politicians. With "Old Fox" (Achidi Achu) Pa politics na njangi heading the list, the CPDM finally crushed the SDF to win all the seven seats in the region.
