A representative of Kennedy Ohene Agyapong in the Evalue Ajomoro Egwira Constituency of the Western Region is alleged to have bolted with money meant for the delegates’ transportation.
Some of the delegates indicated that they were supposed to receive money for transportation but the coordinator has snubbed them.
“We are not voting because the coordinator for Kennedy Agyapong has decided not to give us the transportation,” one of the delegates who preferred to remain anonymous told Connect FM’s Wofa Ato Koomson.
“The coordinator is nowhere to be found so we shall also advise ourselves.”
Another delegate indicated that they have also decided to give Kennedy Agyapong a showdown since his coordinator has refused to sort them out.
“We shall also give Kennedy Agyapong showdown. We will not vote for him if his coordinator refuses to bring the transportation. We are told it’s GH¢ 300 each so we are waiting,” he indicated.
In the Ahanta West Constituency, Kobby Arthur reports that a coordinator who is supposed to bring the transportation to the delegates is nowhere to be found, and as such, they have refused to vote.
“Some of them are still hanging around the voting center. They claim their transportation has not arrived yet so they might not vote,” he reported.
A delegate from the Baidoo Bonsu voting center in Ahanta West indicated that “that coordinator is supposed to bring us the transportation but he is yet to come around. We called him in the morning and he said he was almost here but as we speak he has refused to show up. We are still waiting for him before we vote.”
A report from Pastor Anane in the Amenfi West Constituency indicates that some of the delegates have refused an amount of GH¢700 given to them by coordinators.
“The delegates opened their envelopes and realized the money in it has reduced from GH¢1000 to GH¢700. They confronted the coordinators and it was rectified. But I cannot tell which camp the money was coming from,” he indicated.
In the meantime, the Evalue Ajomoro Egwira Constituency coordinator for Kennedy Agyapong, Frank Okpenyen, has refuted the allegations.
“It is just a mere allegation, even those whose names are not in the album, we have given them money. We have made sure every delegate has received money for transportation to vote. There are people who have decided to spread falsehood just to paint Kennedy Agyapong and his team black. We have made sure every delegate is sorted so treat the report as mere allegations,” he indicated.
