John Boadu, a former general secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), referred to the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) claim that the NPP in the Assin North by-election shared money as being petty.
He claims that the NDC has been distributing money throughout the constituency but then accuses others of doing same.
Speaking to reporters during the by-election, Mr Boadu said “The fertilizer and the machetes they were sharing, what is it about? I think we have moved on from this pettiness in our politics, they have been sharing things all over the place yet they will turn around and come and complain.
“About 20 people came to me that they want to come and vote, won’t I give them transportation to come? The NDC was sharing things all over the place. What is this childishness? I don’t think we can continue this kind of unnecessary debate on who gave this and who gave that.
“The NDC will go and misbehave and then turn around that they want a debate, what kind of backwardness is that? We have moved on.”
The NPP and the NDC are having a go at each other over accusations of the sharing of money to voters in the Assin North by-election.
