The District Chief Executive (DCE) for Asuogyaman, Mavis Opokua Akunnor has exposed Asuogyaman NPP Constituency Secretary for misappropriating the Ghc450,000 campaign fund of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and Pius Enam Hadzide.
According to the DCE, the constituency secretary, Okomfo Addo misappropriated GH₵450,000 allocated for campaign activities.
Speaking to some constituency executives after Pius Hadzide’s defeat in the December 7 parliamentary elections, she stated, “You were given GH₵4.5 billion (old cedis) at 8 a.m., but you held onto it for hours at Green Hotel, insisting the balance be paid before sharing it”.
“On election day, at a critical time, you were spotted drinking at a bar near Goil instead of mobilizing for the party,” she detailed.
The DCE further exposed Okomfo Addo for cashing out funds from the constituency account and misusing them, as well as wasting money allocated for Dr. Bawumia’s campaign for the 2024 elections.
The irritated DCE also suspected that certain groups within the party plotted against the NPP’s parliamentary candidate Pius Hadzide due to him being an Ewe.
Meanwhile, the NPP’s loss in Asuogyaman has ignited conflict within the party, with allegations of finger-pointing, chop chop, and sabotage.
