The Asokwa Constituency of the ruling New Patriotic Party, NPP, has brushed aside reports that delegates of the constituency are desperate to vote against its Member of Parliament, Madam Patricia Appiagyei in the upcoming primaries.

In a statement released and signed by Frank Bosompem Danso, the Constituency Youth Organizer, the party urged the public to completely disregard assertions by a grouping calling itself, ”Asokwa Deserves Better” that the party was against the candidature of the sitting MP.

Members of the so-called pressure group ”Asokwa Deserves Better” in a statement had accused Madam Patricia Appiagyei of reneging on her campaign promises and failing to championing the good works of President Akufo-Addo.

But in a swift reaction, Mr Bosompem Danso, said the party does not recognize members of the so-called group, and therefore, urged the public to treat its statement with absolute contempt.
