NDC primaries: Tension brewing in Abura Asebu Kwamankese constituency

Tension is brewing among National Democratic Congress(NDC) delegates in the Abura Asebu Kwamankese Constituency of the Central Region resulting in the vandalizing of some campaign vehicles.

This comes after the National Organizer of the party, Joseph Yamin allegedly campaigned for one of the aspiring Parliamentary candidates, Prof. Nana Ama Brown Klutse, an action that angered supporters of the other candidate, Felix Ofosu Kwakye who is a former Deputy Minister for Communications.

Mr Yamin is asserted to have met delegates at Moree during which he answered to have let them know that ex-President John Mahama who’s the party’s possible Flagbearer for the 2024 doesn’t uphold the candidature of Mr Ofosu Kwakye, subsequently they ought to decide in favor of Prof. Nana Ama Brown Klutse.

This is said to have irritated allies of Mr Ofosu Kwakye who left the gathering and coordinated their annoyance at the mission vehicles of Prof. Nana Ama Brown Klutse and started to vandalize the vehicles.

The representatives need ex-President Mahama to verify or refute in the event that he sent Joseph Yamin to lobby for an up-and-comer.

They have warned Joseph Yamin and any other National Executives of the party to stay away from campaigning for any candidate in the Abura Asebu Kwamankese Constituency.

The delegates also warned the Constituency Chairman, Vincent Koomson not to throw his weight behind any candidate.

Meanwhile, Joseph Yamin has vehemently denied being in the constituency to campaign for any candidate.

According to him, the last time he visited the Central Region was a month ago when he went there to partake in the vetting of the aspirants.

The case has been reported to the Moree Police Station for investigation.
