Ayɛ ka! Hon. Ken Fumes At His Constituency Chairman To Refund Monies He Deducted From Christmas Gift Meant For Polling Station Executives To Party Office Construction


Assin Central Member of Parliament (MP) Hon. Kennedy Ohene Agyapong has ordered his constituency chairman Mr Attakora Amaniampong to refund all the money he has deducted from Assin Central polling station executives's Christmas gift.

It has become norm for Hon. Ken to gift all his constituency polling station executives every Christmas season but this year's gift nearly pass a wrong channel as the constituency chairman together with some executives in the Constituency took decision to deduct an amount of ¢ 200.00 from each of the polling station executives Christmas package towards new party office construction project.

It would be recall that on the 13th of December 2022, 1st In News published an article  whereby Scores of disgruntled New Patriotic (NPP) polling station executives and electoral area coordinators in the Assin Central Constituency were reeling in anger accusing their Constituency Chairman, Mr. Attakora Amaniampong of forcibly billing them for the construction of a so-called constituency office.

According to these aggrieved executives Mr. Amaniampong pledged to take GH¢200.00 and GH¢500.00 from each polling station executive and electoral area coordinators respectively, 

“We are about 520 executives in the Constituency including electoral area coordinators, and I can tell you everyone is upset with the decision but we are scared to voice it out because the executives might victimize us.

Strangely, Mr. Amaniampong said at the meeting where the incomprehensible decision was taken that anyone who is not well with that decision to lodge a complaint to the party for redress but could a political suicide for any dissatisfied person.

Some few days after this publication, the Constituency secretary Mr Francis Annin popularly known as Akwesi Pepe made voice recording massage ordering all the electoral area coordinators to submit names of those who are refusing to pay the money as discussed at the meeting so that the money could be deducted straight up from Hon. Ken's Christmas gift.

Lo and behold, some of them experienced the deduction from Hon. Ken's Xmas bonanza.

Hon. Ken, upon hearing the unfortunate action taken by the executives led by the constituency chairman in the constituency ordered his constituency chairman Mr Attakora Amaniampong to refund all the deducted monies to the beneficiaries latest by Friday.
