The story also stated that the suspects implicated the NDC PC as the one who brought them to the area to execute the alleged act.
But according to Paul Ofori Amoah, the reports are false; adding that the NDC is only focused on winning in the December 7 elections.
“There is nothing about it. There is no killing. We are focused. Our minds are fixed on the prize. All these antics do not mean anything to me,” he said in response to the circulating reportage.
He noted that the ruling NPP should instead focus on the development of the area instead of instigating false news.
He added, “My brothers of the other party must get serious. There are more serious issues affecting our daily lives here at Agona West we should focus on.”
