Some constituency executives of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Gomoa Central constituency have distanced themselves from an earlier press conference organised by some ward coordinators, calling on the national leadership of the party to consider replacing its parliamentary candidate, Kwame Dean Yawson, with Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, going into the 2024 elections.
The group says Kwame Asare Obeng, who is contesting as an independent candidate, is more marketable and stands a chance of winning the election, hence their appeal to the national leadership.
The constituency executives of the party have condemned the act by the ward coordinators, describing it as a breach of party trust.
Subsequently, the seven ward coordinators, including the constituency communication officer, have been suspended pending further investigation into the matter.
According to Emmanuel Eshun, the Deputy constituency secretary of the party, their candidate Kwame Dean Yawson remains the only candidate that will lead the party to victory in 2024.
“It was unfortunate to hear that some ward coordinators are misbehaving. As constituency executives, we disassociate ourselves from what they did. The party met today and invited the individuals who were involved in the act. The seven ward coordinators involved in the act have been asked to step aside. The constituency communication officer Carlos Anokye has also been asked to step aside until investigations are completed.”
“We have subsequently informed the regional party executives about the issue. The allegations that our candidate is not marketable are false. We don’t know where they got their data from, but what we know as constituency executives is that our candidate is winning the 2024 election,” Emmanuel Eshun, Deputy constituency secretary.
