The Office of the Special Prosecutor (OSP) has launched an investigation into the alleged food-sharing incident in the Ayawaso West Wuogon constituency.
OSP disclosed this to the media at the Legon Police Station, one of the special voting centres.
Tensions escalated in the constituency when the incumbent Member of Parliament and New Patriotic Party (NPP) candidate, Lydia Alhassan, was seen distributing food packs to voters participating in the special voting exercise.
With the help of her team, Lydia Alhassan handed out food to voters waiting in queues at the centre.
John Dumelo, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary candidate for Ayawaso West Wuogon, condemned the act, calling it illegal and a violation of the Electoral Commission’s (EC) rules.
He expressed strong disapproval, stating that such actions undermined the fairness of the process. Dumelo further remarked that he could also engage in similar actions on a larger scale if he chose to do so.
