The New Patriotic Party is incensed at what it says is an act of thuggery being perpetrated by the aspiring Member of Parliament for Odododiodoo and presidential aide, Nii Lantey Vanderpuiye.
The party has thus issued a 24-hour ultimatum for the acts of violence and thuggery to stop or they will take steps to protect their members.
Odododiodoo has made the headlines for all the wrong reasons in the ongoing biometric registration exercise with officials of the two leading political parties accusing each other of misconduct.
The aspiring candidate for the National Democratic Congress on Metro TV’s Good Morning Ghana programme, Thursday vowed to resist any attempt by people he alleged were not resident in the Odododiodoo electoral area to take part in the registration exercise.
He alleged that people were being bused from Kasoa and its environs, given house numbers at the lorry stations and led to the various polling stations to register.
He said he and his agents would not sit down for that criminality to continue, adding that they will prevent it with their blood if necessary.
Despite criticisms from Kweku Baako Jnr., who was also on the show and who advocated for the use of challenge forms, Vanderpuiye insisted resisting such people from registering and sending them back to the places they came from was the way to go.
He claimed to have learnt lessons from the past in which challenge forms were used to raise protests against persons suspected to be 'imposters' but somehow the same people managed to get their names back onto the register.
