Vanimo Green-River member-elect, Belden Namah commended the Electoral Commission and Election Officials for conducting a free and safe election for the people of Vanimo-Green in West Sepik Province.

“I want to thank the Election Manager, Salote Kai and the Returning Officer for a successful election. There was no foul play in this election,” Namah said.

Namah thanked his supporters and reassured his commitment to form government this year after serving as the front man of the opposition in the last 12 years.

“12 years is enough; we will form Government. We will join our coalition partners and form Government,” Namah said.

Namah collected 10,213 votes in the 24th elimination after all ballots were exhausted.

Independent Candidate Eric Kowa was the runner up with 8,767 votes.

Namah is yet to reveal what party he will form a coalition; however, PNC remains an option given the history between him and PNC front man Peter O’Neill.

With the return of writs now extended to the 5th of August, the numbers game for forming government will be on show as elected members scramble to join the winning camp.

But for now, celebrations have already started in Vanimo as loyal Belden Namah supporters celebrate his fourth term in Parliament.
