The Greater Accra Regional office of the Naional Democratic Ccongress (NDC) has dismissed claims that the Member of Parliament for the Prampram constituency,\u00a0E.T Mensah, had connived with some Regional Executives to disqualify some candidates from contesting the party’s constituency elections on Monday.<\/p>\n
The constituency elections were thrown into chao<\/span>s<\/span><\/a><\/strong> when an angry crowd stormed the\u00a0Ghanaman Soccer Centre of Excellence in the Prampram Constituency, where they were being held calling for the elections to be called off.<\/p>\n [contextly_sidebar id=”MlzSzOt6Qe2VjJ51ibR62cB7Qh7YdEo2″]200 delegates of the party in the area had earlier\u00a0protested against the election<\/span><\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0over what they described as unfair disqualification of four candidates alleging that officials of the party, including E.T Mensah had a hand in the decision.<\/p>\n However, the Organiser of the Greater Accra regional office of the party, Anthony Nupkenu, speaking on Eyewitness News<\/strong>, said that the claims by the disqualified aspirants were untrue and were just attempts by persons in the party to tarnish the images of \u00a0the Member of Parliament and\u00a0the Greater Accra Regional Chairman\u00a0of the NDC\u00a0Kobina\u00a0Ade Coker.<\/p>\n “That is a wild allegation, untenable, it has no leg and I\u2019m saying it emphatically that ET Mensah never directed any decision that was taken by the regional executive committee. Neither he nor\u00a0Ade Coker \u00a0took any decision to disqualify anybody.\u00a0It was a regional constituency decision\u00a0 and it is the application of the constitution of the party.”<\/p>\n
