NDC denies defection allegation

Akosombo, June 25, GNA - The Asuogyaman Constituency branch of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) on Wednesday denied statements by Mr Kofi Osei Ameyaw, New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for the area that 250 NDC youth had defecated to the NPP.

A statement issued at Akosombo and signed by Mr Ibrahim Obiri-Anyane, Constituency Secretary, said the statement was false, a fabrication and was meant to deceive the whole world that the NPP was making some gains in Asuogyaman.

The statement called on Mr Osei Ameyaw and the NPP to apologize to "the good people of Asuogyaman and the general public".
