National executives of the United Progressive Party (UPP) have accused the party's flag bearer, Akwasi Addai Odike, of receiving GHS 500,000 to endorse the candidature of opposition New Patriotic Party presidential candidate Nana Akufo-Addo for the 7 December polls.
According to the executives, investigations had revealed that the party's national organiser, Mr Saahene, also received GHS6000 of the said amount and Sammy Awuku, who is the National Youth Organiser of the NPP, also took 10 per cent after brokering the deal.
The executives have asked members of the party to ignore Mr Odike's endorsement of the NPP as he is an individual whose views, opinions, actions, and inactions do not represent those of the party.
The executives, who described Mr Odike as a "failed business man" and a "political prostitute" asked him to refund all party funds of GHS 600,000 and two Toyota pickup vehicles before the December 7 elections.
The executives have declared their support for the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its flag bearer John Dramani Mahama, describing him as “humble, approachable, a unifier, respectful, and peace-loving” person.
The UPP’s First National Vice-chairman, who is also the acting National Chairman of the UPP, Alhaji Bashiru Zakari, said these in a press conference in Kumasi on Monday 28 December.
Deputy Ashanti Regional Minister Andy Okrah, who is also the regional campaign chairman of the NDC, accepted their endorsement.

Now the propagander is coming to its lowest grade. how can NPP give Odike 500,000, even if PPP and CPP come together to endorse Nana still they wont get that amount to talk of a party whose supporters isnt a high percentage. Anka mo ka s3 5000 mpo 3, 500,000 paaaaaaa. cheap propaganda paa ni. change is coming so even if he was given 900,000 koraa still change is near cos we are not ready for any propaganda
This is a blatant lie. NPP is seriously looking for funds n they will dole out money to Odike? big No... Propagander
@ concert party,these people dey do.all thease parties liked APC,UFP,GCPP,IPP,Akua Donkor's party,UPP and most of the smaller parties were being funded by the Tax payer through ndc and we know some have not gotton their last trench of their payment as agreed upon does why they are backtracking.its open secret and every living soul is aware of this even including the phuuls like the stark NDC who are the majority of the poor among Ghanaians.
Ei! then the NPP must be rich, hahahahaa, this is proper propaganda. Was Mr. Odike's party fund that much? How much impact is he going to have on NPP? and how much has been given to the NPP members who are working tirelessly? Let's stop all this OK.
Funny people, NPP is struggling to fund it's campaign, where are they going to find GHC500,000 for Odike? How much following has he got? He has come back home after being foooled by the NDC. If they want money, they should go to NDC as Hassan Ayariga has done.
