Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has declared six persons wanted for vote buying.<\/b><\/p>\n

According to the OSP, these persons who are six males, were engaged in corrupt practices.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe following persons are wanted by the OSP for corruption and corruption-related offences in respect of public elections \u2013 especially vote buying,\u201d a post sighted on the OSP’s social media handles said.<\/p>\n

However, the OSP did not provide their names.<\/p>\n

The OSP also did not say whether the post is in reference to the parliamentary elections held by the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in what they refer to as orphan constituencies on December 2, 2023.<\/p>\n

However, some contestants in the just ended elections said they paid Travel and Transport (T&T) allowance to the delegates to facilitate the process for them.<\/p>\n

One of the failed aspirants in the Odododiodioo Constituency, Nii Lante Bannerman told reporter that \u201cT&T to delegates has come to stay, it is the quantum of the money that we should be discussing.\u201d<\/p>\n

Another failed aspirant for the Okaikwe North Constitunecy, Alberta Afia Akoto, denied buying the votes of delegates.<\/p>\n

She explained that she only assisted the delegates, \u201cIf I have the opportunity to serve my people I should be able to assist them. I went through the due process to show that I could be of help to them, I do not think it is wrong. It is giving people the help and assistance they deserve. If I did, it is an assistance I gave to them.\u201d<\/p>\n
