  "summary": "The National Democratic Congress (NDC) has initiated the nomination process for its constituency executive elections, with members preparing to contest various positions across the country. In the Bia East Constituency of the Western North Region, some branch executives have endorsed the incumbent Constituency Chairman, Mausili Siaka, and the incumbent Constituency Secretary, Joseph Apraku, for another term. The endorsement is based on the leadership's performance, particularly in increasing the NDC's votes in the 2024 general elections, which they believe was achieved. Additionally, they commend the chairman for establishing party offices in every zone within the constituency, with about 90 percent of the project completed. Chairman Mausili Siaka reaffirmed his commitment to the party and the constituency, while Constituency Secretary Joseph Apraku, who is also seeking re-election, appealed to delegates to give the current leadership another opportunity to continue implementing their vision for the party.",
