Amenfi Central: I will knock you down – Joana Cudjoe tells Kwakye Ackah

-

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for Amenfi Central, Joana Gyan Cudjoe, has slammed the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP), Peter Yaw Kwakye Ackah, who is now running as an independent candidate.

This comes after the Sekondi High Court set aside an injunction that had prevented her from contesting the seat.

According to Mrs. Cudjoe, Mr. Kwakye Ackah is an “ungrateful” person and she would like him to contest and be “disgraced,” as that is what he had wanted for her.

In an interview on Adom FM’s morning show Dwaso Nsem, she explained that the NDC had done a lot for him, but he had not appreciated the party’s support.

“We have advised him, but he is not ready to listen. The NDC has done a lot for him, and he is very ungrateful. If it weren’t for the NDC, he wouldn’t even be a member of the party,” she said.

She further revealed that she and her supporters were aware of his plots but were confident that he would not win the election.

“We went for the contest and won, but we know he is plotting against me. However, he knows he won’t win.”

When asked if Mr. Kwakye Ackah would spoil her votes, Mrs. Cudjoe responded: “He will lose. I will knock him down more than Ayittey Powers will do.”

Mrs. Cudjoe also pointed out that Mr. Kwakye Ackah was indirectly campaigning for her.

“He was campaigning for the number two spot on the ballot, which is mine. Since the court has made its decision, he’s actually campaigning for me.”

She added that Mr. Kwakye Ackah seemed envious of her success in the race.

On Monday, November 11, 2024, His Lordship George K. Gyan-Kontoh ruled that the original grounds for the injunction had changed, particularly since the NDC had annulled the contested May primary and held a fresh election.
