Polling agent of Honourable Kennedy Ayapong in the North East region, Humudeen Sayed, popularly known as Hajia Ken, has revealed how the IGP, Akuffo Dampare, allegedly shut her down on Saturday, August 24th.

This was after she tried to dispute the account of the North East police commander about events that led to electoral disturbances at the Nalerigu polling centre during the NPP Super Delegates Conference.

During a press conference, organised on Monday, August 28, by the campaign team of the New Patriotic Party's presidential aspirant and Assin North MP, Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, to address the public on reports of threats, intimidation and assault during the electoral process.

After trying to draw the attention of some electoral officials and police officers, which proved futile, Hajia Ken stated that she resorted to raising an alarm after she observed some electoral irregularities and malpractice happening at the polling centre and dining hall of Nalerigu Senior High School.

According to her, a TV3 reporter walked up to her to grant her an interview.

Before the interview could happen, a group of men approached her and pushed her to the ground, questioning her status and asking if she knew where she was.

Subsequently, her campaign manager, Kwame Owusu, held a conference call with the North East Police commander, Shaibu and the IGP, Akuffo Dampare.

According to Hajia Ken, Commander Shaibu was giving a contradictory account of the happenings at the polling station. In her bid to draw the IGP’s attention to the commander’s supposed ‘lies’ the IGP allegedly shut her down consequentially.

“Campaign manager held a conference call for myself, the IGP and the police commander, which makes us four. The police commander began giving a wrong account of what was happening at the station, it was wrong, it wasn’t tallying.

He wasn’t giving the right information to IGP, so I interjected by screaming, No, that’s not true, that’s not true, three times”.“Then the IGP, in turn, shut me up three times, ordering the campaign manager to take me off the line”, she said.

Meanwhile, a few hours into the election, a video of NPP presidential aspirant and Assin North MP, Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, surfaced online, in which he was heard swearing to give President Akufo-Addo and Vice President Bawumia “a showdown.”

The NPP's election on Saturday wass aimed at reducing the number of candidates in the party's flagbearer contest from 10 to 5.Kennedy Agyapong secured the second position with around 132 votes, trailing behind Vice President Bawumia, who garnered 629 votes out of a total of over 900 votes.
