Tensions are high at the Ningo-Prampram constituency as some delegates insist that voting should halt pending issues surrounding the voting process.
The court order which allows for these executives to vote according to these delegates, was reportedly being contested by members of Sam George’s camp whose argument was that they were originally not part of the list.
The angry delegates say the incumbent MP is trying to manipulate the election in his favour.
They claimed that he wants non-party members to cast their votes, thereby undermining the integrity of the process.
Some of the delegates who spoke to GhanaWeb said,
“When they went to court, the court granted them an order to vote and today we are here, Sam George doesn’t want them to vote. They are all NDC members, and Sam George is trying to stop them from voting and that is what we are saying that without their vote, then voting should not continue. They should go back, resolve the issue and come back for election.”
Another delegate added; “They swore them in as executives and if they are executives then they have to vote. Sam George is refusing for them to vote because Michael’s stronghold is that place. If they don’t allow them to vote, the election will not come on, they will not count any vote.”
