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.
