 Peter Baga  was  also once the NPP chairman for the constituency. 

Mr Mohammed Sampa who is also eyeing the seat,  twice contested the NPP primaries in the constituency but was not successful.

 He was a Deputy Managing Director of the Metro Mass Transit Company. 

Another person who has indicated his intention to contest the primaries is  Nurideeni Mohammed Mumuni.

The number of contestants for the NPP primaries in the Nalerigu/Gambaga constituency is likely to go up to 11  contestants by the time of the primaries per information available to the Voiceless media. 

The NPP according to sources close to  the Voiceless media can win the Nalerigu/Gambaga seat but it is  feared that an acrimonious primaries may deny the NPP the seat.
