The Nsawam Adoagyiri Constituency in the Eastern Region is witnessing heightened tension due to the defacement of posters belonging to New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary aspirant Hayford Siaw.

The CEO of the Ghana Library Authority, Hayford Siaw, seeks to unseat the current Member of Parliament for the area, Frank Annoh-Dompreh.

In preparation for the party's January 27 primaries, Mr. Siaw's publicity team has strategically placed posters across neighborhoods.

However, they have been consistently removed overnight by unidentified individuals.

Supporters of Hayford Siaw confronted those caught defacing the posters, leading to a tense situation.

A video has circulated, allegedly showing a man associated with the incumbent MP physically assaulting a member of Siaw's team who questioned him about the poster defacement. Bystanders had to intervene to prevent further escalation of tensions between the two camps.

Condemning these acts as cowardly, Mr. Siaw's supporters are calling for a thorough police investigation to bring the perpetrators to justice. Despite attempts, contacting the incumbent Member of Parliament for Nsawam Adoagyiri has proven unsuccessful.
