An operative of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) James Agbey has accused the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia and his running mate Dr Matthew Opoku Prempeh of plotting to engage in vote-buying ahead of the 2024 general elections. James Agbay said the NPP is trying to buy votes through the platform Support Group Coordination, where targeted clergymen, influential chiefs, and opinion leaders are being engaged to sway the people in their local area to vote for the NPP in the forthcoming general elections in return for cash. In a statement, he said "In recent times, vote buying has steadily grown in scale and brazenness. Several videos and images have emerged, showing unabashed sharing of cash, food and valuable items among the electorate by the Bawumia campaign. "We must all as a country fight against this sort of 'cash-and-carry democracy'.
