\n

In a twist of events at Abossey Okai in the Greater Accra Region, some spare parts dealers are expressing dismay over the perceived alignment of their Abossey Okai Spare Parts Dealers Association with the governing\u00a0New Patriotic Party\u00a0(NPP).<\/strong><\/p>\n

They are raising concerns about the association\u2019s involvement in championing the political cause of the NPP.<\/p>\n

The concerned group, led by Kweku Atta, is troubled by recent developments where the association appears to be hobnobbing with the NPP.<\/p>\n

Their apprehension heightened when NPP\u2019s parliamentary candidate for the Ablekuma Central Constituency, Jefferson Sackey, publicly acknowledged the spare parts dealers for mounting his campaign billboards.<\/p>\n

The unhappy spare parts dealers, who are also members of the association, called out their leadership for what they perceive as undue involvement in political affairs.<\/p>\n

Specifically, they questioned why Abossey Okai was singled out for such political engagement rather than any other region in the country.<\/p>\n

In a press conference held Tuesday, December 12, 2023, at Abossey Okai, some NPP supporters called on defeated presidential aspirant, Ken Agyepong to go independent in the 2024 general elections.<\/p>\n

Kweku Atta accused the association\u2019s leadership of prioritising political interests over the welfare of its members.<\/p>\n

He expressed worry about the timing of these political maneuvers, especially when many members are already discontented with their living conditions.<\/p>\n

According to Mr. Atta, the leadership\u2019s decision to delve into politics when members are grappling with welfare issues reflects a disregard for the concerns of the association\u2019s backbone, its members.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Classfmonline.com, a day after the press conference by the NPP members who called on Mr. Ken Agyepong to go solo, Mr. Atta emphasised growing unease among the spare parts dealers.<\/p>\n

He called upon the association\u2019s leadership to provide transparency regarding the venue for the press conference featuring the supporters of the defeated presidential aspirant and Member of Parliament for Assin Central Constituency, Kennedy Ohene Agyapong.<\/p>\n

They also questioned who authorised the Young Kofata venue for the press conference.<\/p>\n

The group argued that this was a testament to the association\u2019s alignment with the NPP.<\/p>\n

The Head of Communications of the association, Takyi Addo, has said he wouldn\u2019t comment on the matter.<\/p>\n
