The governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) constituency executives joined hundreds of the party youth in Savelugu Township today (Friday) and demonstrated against the President\u2019s nominee for the Savelugu\/Nantong municipality, Hajia Ayishetu Seidu.<\/p>\n
\nClad in red T-shirts and armbands, they held placards with inscriptions such as \u201cThe woman is alien in Savelugu, \u201cWe don\u2019t want her\u201d and \u201cNana Addo do the right thing.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Savelugu constituency women\u2019s Organizer, Kande Amadu told Citi News that the MCE nominee, Hajia Ayishetu Seidu is not a registered voter in the constituency.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She claimed Hajia Ayishetu Seidu never participated in any party activities ahead of the 2016 polls.<\/p>\n
Kande Amadu warned that any attempt to impose the MCE nominee on the people will be fiercely resisted.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
She advised President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo to rescind his decision and nominate an indigen from the area.<\/p>\n
An official statement issued in support of the demonstration endorsed the MCE nominee\u2019s rejection.<\/p>\n
A part of the statement read, \u201cHajia Ayishetu is undeserving and unfit both legally and morally for her nomination as the MCE for Savelugu\/Nantong municipal assembly and we are therefore demanding that Hajia Ayishetu Seidu\u2019s nomination be revoked and replaced.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cHaji Ayishetu Seidu is not an electorate in either the Savelugu or Nantong constituency. We are therefore alarmingly intrigued as to how come she has been nominated for the municipality.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cOur party elders, founding fathers and former MCE in the two constituencies were not consulted.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Savelugu\/Nantong district police commander, ASP Peter Tawiah led his men to avert any untoward situation during the demonstration.<\/p>\n
