The supporters dismantled canopies, chairs, and a voting booth set up for the event
A group of National Democratic Congress (NDC) supporters in Kotobabi, Ayawaso Central Municipality, reportedly disrupted the second confirmation process for Municipal Chief Executive (MCE) nominee Rudolph Collingwoode-Williams.
According to a report by citinewsroom.com, the angry supporters during the process on Thursday, May 22, 2025, dismantled canopies, chairs, and the voting booth set up for the event at the assembly premises.
Collingwoode-Williams was previously rejected during the first confirmation exercise on April 30, 2025, securing only six out of 17 votes from assembly members, falling short of the required number for confirmation.
The NDC supporters, demanding the nomination of their Constituency Chairman, Harry Otu, as the MCE, expressed strong opposition to President John Dramani Mahama’s choice of Collingwoode-Williams.
They vowed to resist any other nominee, issuing threats against alternative candidates.
