The National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Sammy Gyamfi, has criticised the New Patriotic Party (NPP) over the alleged distribution of narcotic substances (wee) to buy votes during the just-ended Ejisu by-election.<\/strong><\/p>\n

According to the NDC communicator, the alleged act demonstrates the NPP\u2019s unconcerned attitude towards the plight of the youth.<\/p>\n

Moreover, he described the action as the lowest point in Ghana\u2019s electoral process and urged the Police to \u201ctake up this matter and investigate it.\u201d<\/p>\n

Speaking on TV3\u2019s political analysis programme, The Key Points, on Saturday, May 4, Sammy Gyamfi observed that the action by NPP is unacceptable, reprehensible and irresponsible and cannot be condoned.<\/p>\n

Expressing disbelief at the development, Mr. Gyamfi stated, \u201cWhat broke me down as a young man was the level of desperation I saw the NPP display at Ejisu.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhere they went to that shameful extent of distributing narcotic substances, illegal, illicit substances like marijuana, which can make people mad and cause people to suffer from chronic ailments,\u201d he stressed, adding, \u201cIt is totally unacceptable, irresponsible and reprehensible.\u201d<\/p>\n

He added that it is \u201cthe lowest point in our country,\u201d indicating that \u201cthey are destroying the future of this country.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cTill date, NPP has not issued a statement condemning this matter,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n\n

Outcome of Ejisu by-election<\/strong><\/h6>\n

Despite the NPP\u2019s candidate Kwabena Boateng retaining the Ejisu seat for the party with 55.79 percent, senior advisor to independent candidate Alan Kyerematen, Nana Ohene Ntow, argued that the results are a \u201cmicrocosm of a bigger picture\u201d ahead of the December 7 polls.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Ejisu by-election makes a very strong statement about what people within communities, people who are represented by elected officials think right now. we have always had situations where we now elected official represent people but the statement is being made forcefully that we in this community, this is the person we believe represents our best interest.<\/p>\n

\u201cNPP did win, yes, I take Ejisu as the microcosm as what is reverberating in the entire country, especially in the NPP stronghold, the will of the people as against party big shorts,\u201d he told Alfred Ocansey on the programme.<\/p>\n
