The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Chairman of the Odododiodio constituency, Paul Obli Laryea, has cautioned parliamentary candidate aspirants of the constituency to put their supporters in order to avert the recurrence of the violence that took place during their vetting last Friday.
His plea follows the storming of the NDC regional party office in South La by some alleged NDC thugs during the vetting of parliamentary candidate aspirants for the Odododiodio constituency, vandalizing properties and assaulting a Citi FM/TV broadcast journalist in the process.
The vetting of the parliamentary candidate hopefuls was disrupted by violence when members of one of the candidates’ camps destroyed party properties, including chairs and an air conditioner, and pelted stones at the vetting committee, citing unfairness on their part.
The chaos occurred at the regional party office in South La, where three individuals, Nii Okai Laryea, Kotey Ashie, and Michael Nii Yarboi Annang, were facing the committee in the hope of succeeding the incumbent MP, Edwin Nii Lantey Vanderpuye, who is not seeking re-election.
Speaking to Ahotor News Paul Obli Laryea stressed the importance of unity within the NDC in the Odododiodio to win the 2024 election.
