Showdown as Baba Jamal faces late MP’s widow, 3 others in NDC Ayawaso East primariesWitnesses and media reports confirmed that Baba Jamal’s campaign team distributed 32-inch Television Sets and boiled eggs to delegates participating in the poll. When confronted with the allegations, Baba Jamal remained defiant, describing his actions as a long-standing personal tradition of generosity rather than an attempt to buy votes. Ayawaso East Primary: NDC reacts to vote-buying allegationsMussa Dankwah, however, rejected this defence, arguing that treating such acts as mere administrative lapses undermines the presidency's "Reset Agenda." “The president must refer what happened in Ayawaso East to the OSP if we are to take the reset agenda seriously,” he said. The primaries saw a 431-vote win for Baba Jamal against 399 for Hajia Amina Adam.
