Ayawaso West Wugon Parliamentary candidate for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Dumelo and his team have reported incumbent Member of Parliament for Ayawaso West Wugon Lydia Seyram Alhassan to the Office of the Special Prosecutor.
Announcing his decision, John Dumelo indicated that the incumbent Member of Parliament was engaged in criminality when she shared items to some electorates who were in the queue to vote on December 2.
His post announcing his decision said “This afternoon at about 1:00 pm, my team filed a formal criminal complaint against MS. LYDIA SEYRAM ALHASSAN (the sitting MP for our beloved Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency) at the Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP).
The complaint entails video recordings of various conducts by MS. LYDIA SEYRAM ALHASSAN which we believe breach our criminal and electoral laws.
My team also gave material information on plots by MS. LYDIA SEYRAM ALHASSAN to unlawfully influence voters on a larger scale come Saturday, December 7, 2024, when the main election will be held.
We expect the OSP to take immediate and decisive steps to not only prevent the MS. LYDIA SEYRAM ALHASSAN from repeating the unlawful behaviour, but also to bring her and all her accomplices to book.
It goes without saying that how the OSP handles our complaint between today and Friday, December 6, will determine the quality of Saturday’s elections.
Thank you”.
Meanwhile, Lydia Seyram Alhassan has denied engaging voters and giving out items while they were in queues to cast their vote at the Legon Police station on December 2, 2024.
