was marred<\/a><\/strong><\/span> by verbal attacks\u00a0and exchange of blows with some supporters of Edward Bawa, forcing an intervention by the police.<\/p>\nAddressing party supporters, Aloyagle Francis accused Edward Bawa of conniving with constituency executives particularly, the chairman; Tahiru Aberinga, the secretary; Stephen Ayinneliya and the District Chief Executive; Alexis Ayamdor, to win the parliamentary primary unfairly.<\/p>\n
He also alleged that Mr. Bawa, had supported his allies financially to oust key branch and ward executives whose hard work \u00a0had led the party to victory over the years, to lose their positions to his allies.<\/p>\n
According to Aloyagle Francis “We are will vote skirt and blouse against Edward Bawa because he has no regard for his contenders and their supporters before, during and after the primary.\u00a0He has brought serious disunity to the NDC party in Bongo by inciting people against others to achieve his parochial interest and has refused to reconcile with his contenders and their supporters.”<\/p>\n
The group described as \u00a0an unconstitutionality, the hoarding of party registration booklets by the constituency chairman and secretary, to register persons to vote for Edward Bawa prior to the primary,\u00a0thus sabotaging\u00a0other contestants.<\/p>\n
The group also accused Mr. Bawa and his supporters of supporting a PNC candidate Jacob Nsoh, prior to the 2012 election, to reduce the votes of Mr. Albert Abongo, and have vowed to campaign against him to lose the seat.<\/p>\n
Mr. Aloyagle reiterated the group’s commitment to embark on house to house campaign to influence constituents to vote against Edward Bawa come November 7.<\/p>\n
The angry members say they\u00a0are confident of securing victory for President John Mahama, but cannot guarantee same for Edward Bawa, who’s also \u00a0Communications Consultant to the Energy Ministry, if he fails to unite the rank and file of the party in the constituency.<\/p>\n
