Deputy Youth Organizer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Ruth Dela Seddoh, has claimed that the men who assaulted former Member of for Awutu Senya East, , at the Odorkor Methodist 1 Polling Station were acting to protect the integrity of the ballots.

According to her, the individuals involved may not be members of the NDC but were motivated by a desire to prevent any irregularities during the Ablekuma North parliamentary rerun. "They said they meant to protect the integrity of the ballot.

That is their reason.

We have seen situations where the police was present and Hawa Koomson had the laxity and effrontery to do what she did.
