The Central Regional branch of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has moved to defend its\u00a0parliamentary candidate for Awutu Senya West, George Andah, following his recent challenge to Hanna Tetteh to show her husband to constituents.<\/p>\n
Mr. Andah at a mini rally held at Bawjiase in the Central Region last week, challenged the incumbent Member of Parliament, Hanna Tetteh, to show her husband to the constituents.<\/p>\n
\u201cI came here with my wife, and children. Please tell Hanna to also come and show us her husband,\u201d Mr. Andah\u00a0said.<\/p>\n

In my view, George Andah gave Hanna Tetteh a fair response. He was even charitable with Hanna Tetteh,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n Andah\u2019s attack on Hanna Tetteh\u2019s marital status primitive – NDC<\/strong><\/p>\n Meanwhile, the Central Regional Secretariat of the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC), has in a strongly worded statement condemned what it calls \u201cretrogressive\u201d and \u201cprimitive\u201d the attack on the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) for Awutu Senya West constituency, Hanna Tetteh.<\/p>\n
