The Awutu Senya East Constituency Executives of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Central Region have appealed to the Inspector-General of Police (IGP), Christian Tetteh Yohuno, to investigate Member of Parliament Phillis Naa Koryoo Okunor for allegedly spreading falsehoods against former MP Mavis Hawa Koomson during the 2024 general elections.
The party executives claim that Naa Koryoo falsely accused Hawa Koomson of attacking her convoy and causing the deaths of two party members — allegations that have since been disproved.
Addressing a press conference, the NPP’s Deputy Central Regional Secretary, Charles Kojo Odoom, said the claims were deliberately intended to tarnish the reputation of the former Minister of Fisheries and Aquaculture Development.
“Then Interior Minister Muntaka Mubarak clarified that Naa Koryoo later retracted her allegations, admitting that her convoy had not been attacked and that she was not at the alleged scene,” Odoom said.
He urged the IGP to take action against Naa Koryoo for misleading the public and called on her to issue an unqualified apology to Hawa Koomson.
Supporting the call, Awutu Senya East NPP Constituency Secretary, Michael Addy, said Naa Koryoo’s conduct had embarrassed the people of Kasoa.
“She has disgraced the good people of Kasoa. She should do the honourable thing and apologise,” Addy stressed, accusing her of using populist tactics for attention rather than focusing on development issues.
