Member of Parliament for Ningo-Prampram, Sam Nartey George, is optimistic of a clear victory in the National Democratic Congress' primaries happening today.

Incumbent MP Sam George and businessman Michael Tetteh Kwetey are competing for the position.

The voting process started at 8 a.m., with an expected total of 1675 delegates participating.

Ahead of the elections, Mr Nartey George said “resounding victory. This is going to be one of the best elections I’ve had.”

The MP has been a loud advocate for the anti-LGBT bill currently in parliament, and according to him, he represents the light and the light will prevail over darkness.

“I am fighting for the protection of our culture, our values and to make sure that our children are protected and that is what I represent. The other side cannot speak to these matters because for them their hands are tainted.

“They are in bed with all manner of people. Like I said, Saturday will be a clear testament to everybody in this country that the forces of light will prevail over the forces of darkness.”
