The Member of Parliament (MP) for Tamale South and minority leader, Haruna Iddrisu, has declared his intent to stand for re-election as MP.

Iddrisu added that he will continue to serve his people with humility and integrity, and therefore appealed to the constituents to renew his mandate after thanking them for previous opportunities.

“Therefore come 2020, I will run formally as Member of Parliament candidate for the Tamale South constituency.

I want to use this opportunity to profoundly thank the people of Tamale South; they remain a tower of strength to me and unwavering support.

I’m sure any candidate within the NDC and without the NDC into the New Patriotic Party can only await a humiliating defeat if they want to run for the seat,” he added.

He further explained that his decision to comment on his political future was timely, as it will dispel widespread conflicting rumours about his next political ambitions.

Iddrisu went on to say that it will also ultimately put to rest the offstage discussions about being the potential favourite candidate for the running mate position of his party, going into the 2020 elections
