The Western Region chairman of the Convention People’s Party is accusing the 2008 presidential candidate of the Party Dr. Papa Kwesi Nduom of hi-jacking the party.
Samuel Etroo told Joy News, Nduom virtually took over the running of Western Region delegates congress of the party without any authority to do so.
“One man is trying to hijack this party. It is Paa Kwesi Nduom. It is clear,” he said. "I know what happened that very day. Last Saturday was a Regional Congress not a presidential congress but he was going up and down trying to use all means. I was shocked about his behavior,” he alleged.
He also accused the chairman of the party, Ladi Nylander of plotting to have a discredited election in the region.
According to him, the Chairman had threatened him to conduct the election at all cost even in the face of grievous anomalies.
“Look, before we go ahead with the election I want you to know that we will not disqualify anybody,” he quoted the party chairman as saying.
He said, subsequently he realized that three people were using one party card number.
He described the development as “questionable” but “he (Nylander) was insisting that we go ahead with the election.”
Etroo's accusation follow a similar allegation levelled against the Party Chairman and Nduom by Prof Agyemang Badu Akosah and two of the party's National Executives.
The election eventually ended abruptly after a controversy erupted over the legitimacy of some of the delegates.
