The Concerned Youth of NDC in Nsawam Adoagyiri Constituency in Eastern Region is mounting pressure on the Parliamentary candidate for the just ended Parliamentary election Philibert Fummey Amenorpe (Selorm) to Step Down from the Municipal Chief Executive race because the party is strongly contesting the parliamentary election results which the Electoral Commission has declared Frank Annor Dompreh of the NPP as winner.
According to the group, they ” have credible information, supported by documented evidence, that Honourable Philibert Fummey Amenorpe (Selorm) is contesting the parliamentary election results at the Koforidua High Court.
In view of this, we strongly demand that he immediately step down from his reported intention to file for the position of Municipal Chief Executive (MCE), unless he is deceiving the party faithfuls that he won the 2024 parliamentary election.
This conflict of interest undermines the integrity of the party and raises questions about his commitment to the NDC’s vision” the group said in a statement issued on Saturday.
The NDC group alleged that the parliamentary candidate has received a substantial sum of money from Frank Annoh Dompreh to abunden the court case rather pursue the vacant MCE position.
“We demand that Honourable Selorm to publicly address these allegations, as they cast serious doubts on his loyalty and credibility within the party.
Additionally, the group is also demanding from the Constituency Election Directorate to urgently release the collated results of both the presidential and parliamentary elections.
“Transparency in this regard is critical to maintaining the trust and confidence of the party’s grassroots and ensuring accountability within our electoral processes”.

The group cautioned that action must be taken on their demands without delay to avert consequences.
