The Tema East Constituency of the New Patriotic Party, NPP has denied accusations that its
parliamentary candidate, Titus Glover is behind the arrest and detention of the
NDC’s parliamentary candidate.
Scores of supporters of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) within the Tema East
constituency on Monday night mass up at the Tema Community 11 police station to
demand the release of their parliamentary candidate for the area, Nii Ashai
Odampten.
According to information picked
up by Hot News’ Ohene Gyan Piesie, the parliamentary candidate was being held
by the police for failing to meet a bail condition he was given by an Accra
court on counts of alleged embezzlement while he was Mayor of Tema.
He has since been released. Some
of the NDC supporters who spoke to Hot News’ Ohene Gyan Piesie accused Titus
Glover for being behind the arrest.
Meanwhile, the Tema East
constituency Secretary of the NPP, Nene Sackitey has denied the accusations.
He rather accuses the NDC for
destroying the office of the NPP.
