Aggrieved Concerned Polling Station Aspirants in the Bekwai Constituency in the Ashanti Region have petitioned the Ashanti Regional Executive Committee of the Party over growing concerns regarding the recently conducted vetting process to get members for various positions.
The Petition signed by the convener of the group, Francis Baah noted that a great number of Party members have been disqualified on grounds widely perceived as unclear, leading to dissatisfaction among affected members and their supporters.
It said some polling station executive members were cleared without undergoing the vetting process, raising questions about fairness and transparency.
The petition said these developments are creating tensions within the Constituency and risks escalating into unrest, if not urgently addressed.
It called on the Regional Executive Committee to intervene promptly, review the process where necessary and take appropriate steps to restore confidence and unity within the Party.
Throwing more light on their grievances to the media at Bekwai, Francis Baah said the Constituency used to have an NPP voting population of over 65,000 but this figure has dwindled to as low as 31,000 per the results of the last general elections, and that if care is not taken things will not be well for the Party.
The aggrieved threatened that if they do not hear anything from the Regional or the National offices they will take to the streets to demonstrate their displeasure.
