Felix Kwakye Ofosu, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for Abura Asebu-Kwamankese, has accused the New Patriotic Party (NPP) of being behind recent incidents of electoral violence in Ghana.

In a Wednesday interview, Kwakye Ofosu addressed accusations that the NDC was involved in violent acts, asserting that the NPP government is the only one under which fatalities occurred during elections.

He highlighted the killing of eight individuals in the most recent elections as proof, attributing the violence to the ruling party’s actions and the dangerous atmosphere it has created.

He remarked, “In recent history, the only administration under which people have been killed during elections is the NPP. Eight people were gunned down by thugs and security forces.”
