The Chairman of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Ayawaso West Wuogon, Alhaji Osman Iddrisu has said that Ghanaians should debunk claims by their opponent from the National Democratic Congress, John Dumelo, as being sabotaged by the party.
Reacting to the accusations, the party chairman said, John Dumelo is being dramatic, there is no truth in any of his statements during his engagement with the media.
“John is always dramatic because he comes from the movie industry. Who will stop you from installing a streetlight? If it is dredging too, you go and dredge and nobody can stop you. All he is saying is gimmicks. When you are from an industry, it can influence your actions”, he said.
He emphasized that it is a competition, and every candidate will find ways and means to win.
“We are not sabotaging anybody and you know, it is a competition, and as I told you, we are here to win and we are not relenting”, he added.
