Former New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Ejisu, Kwabena Owusu Aduomi, has made a bold decision to contest the upcoming by-election as an independent candidate.
This decision was influenced by what he perceives as a lack of action from the National Leadership of the NPP to address crucial concerns regarding the existing delegates album. Mr. Owusu Aduomi believes that these concerns undermine the integrity and fairness of the party.
In a statement released by his campaign aide, Nana Osei Bonsu, it was disclosed that Mr. Owusu Aduomi’s decision was largely influenced by the irregularities observed during the Ejisu polling station executive elections.
These irregularities, which included the alleged arbitrary selection of individuals by the late MP of Ejisu, John Kumah, and the Regional Executives of the NPP, were deemed unacceptable in a democratic society.
The statement pointed out that the Ejisu polling station executive elections were marred by irregularities that go against the democratic process. The late MP of Ejisu, along with the Regional Executives of the NPP, were accused of handpicking individuals to fill key positions, a move that blatantly disregarded the party’s constitution and fundamental principles.
According to the statement, the actions taken during the Ejisu polling station executive elections have sparked protests from party members and stakeholders across the nation. The matter has even made its way to the courts for adjudication, highlighting the seriousness of the situation and the urgent need for resolution.
