With less than three days to the Ghanaian presidential election, one of the candidates, Christian Kwabena Andrews a.k.a Osofo Kyiri Abosom, has warned potential troublemakers to stay far from the polling stations, otherwise they would be afflicted by curses which he has released.
Osofo Kyiri Abosom of the Ghana Union Movement (GUM), said he has invoked seven curses ahead of the 7 December presidential and parliamentary elections.
Speaking at a press conference at the weekend Kyiri Abosom outlined the seven curses on “wicked Ghanaians on voting day” as follows:
The first curse goes to people who want to stuff ballot boxes to favour their preferred candidates. Whether they are security officers, media personnel, or electoral officers, they should be struck by God’s thunder.
Any person who casts more than one vote during the election should suffer an untimely death.
Any person who tries to change the Ghana Union Movement’s votes to favour any other political party during counting should die in a terrible accident.
Any EC official who plans to manipulate figures, for example, adding a zero to 20 to make it 200, should decay alive.
Any individual in a political party who intends to become an EC official to rig the election for their party should be struck by hunger and disgrace.
Any politician who wants to use stolen public funds to influence the election should suffer all kinds of illnesses, including stroke, coma, and blindness.
Any security officer who plans to abuse their power by assaulting journalists to manipulate the election for a particular political party should suffer poverty and become an alcoholic.
The presidential candidate added that these seven curses would be multiplied by ten, bringing the total number to 70.
Ghanaians are expected to choose between the candidate of the ruling party New Patriotic Party (NPP) Mahamudu Bawumia and that main opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) John Mahama.
Both parties have laid accusations and counter accusations against each other. While the NDC alleged that the NPP is colluding with the army high command to rig the election, the NPP says the NDC is banking on the police to help it carry out its rigging plans. With Pulse Ghana reports
