Voting is underway in the Ayawaso East NDC primary, amid allegations that delegates are receiving 32-inch television sets from Baba Jamal’s campaign team. According to Citi News, the allegations have sparked concerns about vote buying and the integrity of the electoral process.
The allegations have been denied by Baba Jamal’s team, who claim they are baseless and without evidence. However, eyewitnesses report seeing campaign staff distributing items, including television sets, to delegates at various polling stations.
The Electoral Commission has been urged to investigate the allegations and take necessary action to ensure a fair and transparent process. The Ayawaso East constituency has a history of closely contested elections, and the outcome of this primary is being closely watched.
Baba Jamal, a former Deputy Minister, is facing off against several other candidates, including Opare Addo Anthony, a former parliamentary candidate. The NDC has emphasized the importance of a peaceful and credible primary.
The outcome of the primary is expected to have significant implications for the party’s chances in the 2024 general elections. The situation is being closely monitored by political pundits and supporters alike.
The NDC will need to ensure a transparent and fair process to maintain the integrity of the party.
