Some members of the governing NPP in the Awutu Senya West constituency of the Central region have bemoaned what they say is a subtle campaign by their former member of parliament George Andah to contest for the seat on the party’s ticket in the 2024 polls.
“We the people of Awutu Senya West don’t want to witness that reign of George Andah, now christened Tobge Kokotako again in our political life,” the party members said in a statement.
An open letter by the group to the NPP fraternity in the constituency described the former lawmaker as “the deadliest virus ever in political leadership.”
They accused George Andah of launching a “submarine campaign” in his bid to snatch the seat back destroying persons who have the capacity to challenge him in the 2023 elections.
But noted “We prefer COVID-19 rather than George Andah’s arrogance and insults – Awutu Senya West NPP youth”.
They accused the former lawmaker of disrespecting traditional leaders in the community

DEDICATED NPP MEMBERS OF AWUTU SENYA CONSTITUENCY
Dear Patriots,
We have noted with disdain how attempts are being rewrite the history of the fortunes of Awutu Senya West constituency in the 2020 elections. Over the last few days the former MP Nenyi George Andah has began a submarine campaign to destroy persons who can challenge him in the 2023 elections and is finding people to blame for his defeat in the 2020 elections.
The people of Awutu Senya West are wide awake. George Andah should accept he is the sole reason for the defeat in 2020 parliamentary elections.
Awutu Senya West NPP will not forget that: was
1. George Andah exhibited arrogance and pomposity to the very people who assisted him to get to parliament.
2. George Andah went insulting community elders at Bawuanum.
3. George Andah used his walking stick to beat one of our polling station executives near the church premises
4. George Andah told NPP party people to keep quiet when they see NDC guys being assisted to get employment or assistance
5. George Andah engineered the suspension of constituency party executives
6. George Andah allegedly used campaign funds to erect security installation at his house at Prampram which cost almost GHc120,000
7. George Andah made an advance payment of GHc8,000 for victory party when we needed money to secure the victory in the first place.
8. George Andah gave NPP slots into police, prisons, army , fire service and other employment opportunities to Accra Boys and girls
9. George Andah and his cohorts kept sewing machines, barbering machines, hair dryers, trays and other campaign materials meant for the campaign; materials which are still in possession of certain individuals
10. George Andah invited musicians to come and tell the constituents what they want when we needed money to run campaign activities at the polling station
11. George Andah described party people as indiscipline
12. George Andah disrespected our chiefs, including the paramount chief of Awutu Traditional Area.
These are facts that are indisputable and we cannot forget about them.
As every soul here on earth was affected one way or the other by this deadly novel COVID-19 virus, and NOT READY to witness it again in our lifetime, we the people of Awutu Senya West don’t want to witness that reign of George Andah, now christened Tobge Kokotako again in our political life.
George Andah is the deadliest virus ever in political leadership. Not even Adolf Hitler can be compared to him. Even the said wicked Hitler did not deprive his relative of work. He bribed his doctors to change the medical report of his own brother to say that his own brother is suffering from hernia, just to deprive him of a legitimate opportunity he failed to secure for him.
For George Andah to come back again in ASWC, we prefer covid19. The novel covid19 has some safety measures that when we adhere to it measures, we can live forever.
May Almighty Allah Bless ASWC and make Us GREAT & STRONG🙏🙏🙏
