Constituency Women Organizers from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) have leveled serious accusations against Emmanuel Nii Ashie Moore, the Greater Accra Regional Chairman.

Over 40 Constituency Women Organizers submitted a petition to the National Executive Council (NEC) of the party on Tuesday, July 16, 2024, alleging that Mr. Ashie Moore exhibited male aggression and made threats against prominent women within the party.

During an interview on Adom FM's morning show, Dwaso Nsem, on Thursday, Ledzokuku Constituency Women Organizer Hajia Sherifa Sulley asserted that the Regional Chairman threatened them with arrest unless they apologized to him.

“We petitioned Regional Chairman Ashie Moore, but he disrespected us. He was mocking us when we presented the petition at his office. He called some of the women and threatened them with the Police. I was disappointed at a video I saw of the Regional Chairman using the Police to threaten the women to apologise to him, if not, he will have them arrested by Friday,” she said.

Hajia Sherifa stressed that their intentions were not to undermine Mr. Ashie Moore but rather to pursue justice and advocate for women's respect within the party.

She appealed to the National Executive Council to attentively consider their grievances and implement necessary measures.

“We believe in the NDC as a party and trust that our executives will never sit on this case aloof. They will investigate and come out with the truth and give their own verdict. We don’t want to decide for the party on what to do with the issue. They should deliberate and come out with a punishment if necessary,” she stated.

The Ledzokuku Constituency Women Organizer reaffirmed their commitment to the NDC and expressed optimism that the matter would be resolved to uphold the party's integrity and unity.

Hajia Sherifa expressed her wish that the party's leadership would address the issue equitably, ensuring that the NDC continues to be a party that cherishes and honors its women.
