Opinion: Bekwai NPP Primaries: Desperate COP Alex Mensah on a dangerous mission

Author: Yaw Columbus Amoabeng

We find ourselves in the early days of an electioneering year this 2024. Already, characteristic of every election year, reckless and unfounded allegations have been activated in the highest dimension.

This time around by an embittered and aggrieved former police capo who should know better.

The impending NPP Primaries with a focus on events heating up in the Bekwai Constituency have caught attention.

In all, four candidates have been approved to contest the primaries in the Bekwai constituency. They include Ralph Poku-Adusei, Kingsley Opoku Agyemang, COP George Alex Mensah (Rtd), and Henry Opoku Ware.

This is a very heated contest to find the replacement of one of the longest-serving members of Parliament Hon. Joseph Osei Owusu (Joe Wise).

It also appears from Bekwai grounds that, COP Alex Mensah will lose miserably and hence; COP Alex Mensah’s rantings to court voter sympathy from NPP Bekwai delegates.

From all pointers, COP George Alex Mensah, a well-known lead conspirer in the infamous Dampare leaked tape is on a reckless, shameless and monstrous mission to save his face.

Interestingly he has alleged that the Vice President and Presidential candidate of the NPP Dr Mahamudu Bawumia and the Inspector General of Police (IGP) George Akuffo-Dampare, have sent an unknown person to Bekwai to pay delegates to vote against him in the upcoming parliamentary primaries on 27 January 2024.

COP Alex Mensah (Rtd) made the allegations in an interview on Kessben TV/Radio’s “Amansan Ntie” show hosted by Akuoko Kwarteng on Friday, 12 January 2024.

As if his display of outbursts is not enough and with a clear defeat staring in his face, he is bent on invoking his boiling and inconsolable wrath on highly noble innocent persons in high positions of the NPP Government.

COP Alex Mensah’s allegations smack of a barbarous disposition inspired by nothing short of desperate propaganda and smear campaigns.

It is therefore preposterous for COP Alex Mensah to even contemplate treading the same old, worn-out path of cluelessness under the guise of winning a parliamentary election.
