The Spokesperson of John Dumelo, has dismissed reports that the nomination forms of the 2020 Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency Parliamentary Candidate of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) are being investigated.
Benjamin Madugu Avornyotse insists that the forms were thoroughly interrogated by the Constituency Elections Committee, certified and cleared before submission.
“Our campaign followed through all procedures diligently and complied with every requirement as the party guidelines demand,” Mr Avornyotse said in a statement on Wednesday, April 5.
This follows reasons adduced for the indefinite postponement of the vetting of candidates of the Ayawaso West Wuogon Constituency.
According to a member of the Greater Accra Region Vetting Committee of the NDC, Theophilus Tetteh Chaie, all Nomination Forms of the three contending candidates – Mr Dumelo, Fred Nuamah and Moses Barfi Acheampong – had “anomalies” and we’re being investigated by the national leadership.
This the camp of Mr Dumelo denies.
“It is important to put on record that, John Dumelo’s nomination forms, were filled at the constituency office in the presence of the constituency elections committee,” the statement said.
“The said filling process was interrogated thoroughly by the committee, certified by the representatives of the committee and cleared.”
