Statement

“Politics is Indeed Complex”

……Upper West Politics…Chairman Bunas(NDC) Wins 11/11 and lost 😡 in his re-election bid…

Ag. Chairman White lost 11/11 and was handsomely retain(NPP)…

So what is the reward system in Politics for a Yoo mans Job????

Meanwhile, there are some concerns pointing to why Abdul Saani Nasir lost the position of Chairman and they include, Indecent Political Campaign by some of his Campaign Team Members, Communicators including the Following Statement:

“Mr Seasonal politician I heard someone bought a ticket of 5000gh for you to donate during the 2024 fund raising and now you and your watchdogs want an accountability from someone who donated 100,000gh. Please is this not pure greed??” – Dabonaa Khalifa Stated.

Secondly, Allegedly Controlling and Demanding 30% Share of School Feeding Allocation from Various Constituencies including Sissala West Constituency.

“Who brought people from regional to come and prepare food for our people in Sissala West when we have VERY CAPABLE natives who can equally do that and in turns build their capacities to contribute to the development of the party locally?” Prince Hina Stated

Thirdly, Purported Attempt to influence changes in a Voter Register at Jirapa.

Fourthly, Not Picking Calls of Some Delegates or Unknown Numbers, a Concern Raised by a Delegate in Lawra.

Lastly, Solely Claiming 11/11 without Acknowledging the Efforts of Others. The Newly Elected Chairman, Alhaji Alhassan Adams Randy in a Statement to the Media Ahead of the elections, Indicated that the Former Chairman(Bunas) was taking glory for Winning all eleven seats, an insult to Constituency Executives and other supporters.
