Background
Fomena is located in the Ashanti Region, the ruling party’s stronghold.
Early last month, angry party supporters protested against party leadership over plans to circumvent the electoral process to favour incumbent MP and Second Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Andrew Amoako Asiamah.
The protesters painted the party office with the traditional colours of the opposition NDC as they turned their anger on leadership at the regional and national levels.
A spokesperson for the aggrieved supporters of NPP in the Fomena Constituency, Emmanuel Domah, said their protest was a result of unfair treatment meted out to some party members by the party hierarchy.
