What do you believe is the single most important factor driving up the cost of living in Nigeria?

Swedru (C/R), August 23, GNA- Some women at the Swedru Market have protested the decision by the Agona West Member of Parliament (MP), Mrs Cynthia Mamle Morrison to contest the upcoming parliamentary elections as an independent candidate.

The women described the move by the sitting MP who lost the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary primary as “diabolic, wicked, selfish and a betrayal” to the ruling NPP.

They also see it as an attempt to disrupt and disorganise efforts of the party to retain the seat in the December 7, polls.

Addressing a press conference at Swedru in the Agona West Constituency to register their displeasure, Madam Charity Dankwa, spokesperson of the women said the decision was “sad” saying she was being “ungrateful.”

She said the women were not comfortable with the step taken by MP to go solo and called on the national, regional and constituency executives of the party to intervene to salvage the party from losing the seat to the opposition NDC in the December 7, polls.
