Sam Nartey George, the incumbent Member of Parliament for the Ningo-Prampram seat, says he would never forget the falsehoods spewed about him by his opponent, Michael Tetteh Kwetey, during the National Democratic Congress’s recent parliamentary and presidential primaries.
Mr. George, speaking on Face to Face on Citi TV, sadly described how his opponent circulated falsehoods about him and his family ahead of the primaries.
He hinted that his triumph did not come as a surprise because his primary rival believed the falsehoods would work in his favour.
“The delegates smeared his face in the mud because of his petty wicked falsehoods.” Falsehoods that make the devil scream the blood of Jesus because the demon can’t believe a human being will sit and construct such lies,” he said on Tuesday’s broadcast with Umaru Sanda Amadu.
“He assaulted my wife and children.” “He went around stating that I spent Common Fund to take care of my wife and used some of it to buy a land cruiser, and it was the dumb nature of some of these lies that allowed the delegates to know he was a joker,” Mr George continued.
In the Saturday, May 13 primary, Mr. George beat Michael Kwettey Nettey with 1,036 votes.
The elections were marred with allegations of rigging and, at a point, two people were arrested at the New Ningo D/A Basic School B polling station and voting briefly halted and only resumed after the intervention of the national leadership of the party.
