Odododiodio constituency delegates demand GH₵700 Allowance

These delegates have raised concerns that two members of Acheampong’s campaign team have failed to disburse the promised funds, prompting a few delegates to take drastic measures, including seizing the mobile device of one of the campaign officials in a bid to signal their frustration.

“I travelled all the way from Kasoa to this constituency solely because of my support for Bryan. However, it seems the campaign team is holding onto the money that is rightfully ours. We want Bryan to know that if he does not secure victory, he should direct his frustrations towards his campaign team in Odododiodio.”
