Ajumako Enyan Essiam NPP Denies Booing Vice President

The Ajumako Enyan Essiam branch of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Central Region has denied a fabricated story that the delegates of the area booed the Vice President of Ghana, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia during his recent visit.

The said story has been circulating on social media with a video attached.

According to the party’s constituency secretary, John Yanney, the story is a total lie. The Vice President received a very rapturous welcome in Ajumako Enyan Essiam on his recent visit.
His message of hope was well received by the delegates.

Yanney clarified that the incident in the video took place when the District Chief Executive (DCE) for Ajumako Enyan Essiam was introduced by the MC for the programme.

He stated that it was the DCE who was booed at by some few party people who had come to observe the programme.

The party has since condemned such behaviour and apologised to the DCE.

The Vice President delivered a touching and inspiring message to the delegates of Ajumako Enyan Essiam during his speech which resulted in the delegates giving him a standing ovation and pledging their unflinching support and votes to him.

The constituency secretary praised the Vice President for exhibiting sterling leadership qualities throughout his speech and conducting his campaign in a decent and reconciliatory manner.

Yanney, therefore, urged the Vice President to continue with his decent and reconciliatory manner in conducting his campaign. The party also attached the original videos of the introduction of the Vice President and the DCE.
