A parliamentary debate in the Awutu Senya West Constituency in the Central Region was postponed because of the presence of some National Democratic Congress (NDC) women clad in red at the venue to protest against the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidate for the area George Andah.<\/p>\n

The National Commission on Civic Education (NCCE) postponed the debate because Mr. Andah was reportedly insecure with the presence of the protesters.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”iRQFrqNm4KGZxANncgCvmruz8CvsAHSA”]According to the incumbent Member of Parliament for the area, Hanna Tetteh, the women were there to protest against George Andah, who had attacked her single marital status by\u00a0challenging<\/strong><\/a><\/span>\u00a0her to show her husband to her constituents.<\/p>\n

Madam Tetteh indicated that a number of NDC members in the constituency had taken offense to Mr. Andah\u2019s comments, of which he has remained unapologetic, though she herself stated that she is not disturbed by Mr. Andah\u2019s campaign attacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cQuite frankly I couldn\u2019t care less about Mr. Andah\u2019s attacks on me. They are not my problem and I don\u2019t even consider them to be an issue. If that is the way he wants to do his campaign that is his choice. I will do my campaign differently.”<\/p>\n

“But there are some people in this constituency who are members of my party who have taken offense and for that reason; a number of the NDC women who were planning to attend the debate had worn funeral clothes as a sign of protest,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Concerning the cancellation of the debate, Madam Tetteh revealed that from the discussions their NCCE platform, it appeared that Mr. Andah was concerned that protesters \u201cconstituted propaganda and he [Andah] would not like to see that present during the debate.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cFor this reason the NCCE decided to suspend the debate and postpone it to another day,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
