Jomoro MP claims opposition members threw party over her accident

Member of Parliament for Jomoro, Dorcas Affo-Toffey, has claimed some people jubilated over an accident she was involved in August.

She has accused members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in Jomoro of feting over her misfortune.

The Jomoro lawmaker narrowly escaped death in a severe accident on the Takoradi-Cape Coast-Accra Highway.

The incident occurred in August when the MP’s Ford Raptor vehicle was involved in a lethal collision caused by two heavy trucks attempting to overtake each other.

Speaking to Onua News at the Kotoka International Airport when she had returned from the States after undergoing a medical treatment, Dorcas Affo-Toffey criticised Jomoro NPP supporters for wishing her dead in the accident.

She asserted that members of NPP in Jomoro wished she had died in the accident for a by-election to be held to unseat her.

“When the accident occurred a group of people in the constituency threw party wishing that I die. Their plan was that I should die so that they can win the seat in a by-election,” she claimed.

She maintained that there is no way the NPP can win the Jomoro seat from her, hence the NPP’s move to jubilate over her accident.
