Former NPP MP for the Agona West Constituency, Hon. Cynthia Morrison, has strongly denied rumors that she has withdrawn her independent candidacy for the upcoming 2024 elections. In a phone interview with Asempa FM, she dismissed reports circulated by Asasi Radio and other media platforms claiming that she had stepped down from the race.
Morrison, who resigned from the NPP to contest as an independent candidate in Agona West, clarified that she has not rescinded her decision. "There is no truth to the stories being circulated," she stated. She explained that a photograph of her with some NPP members has been shared on social media, leading to speculation that she has rejoined the party. Morrison refuted these claims, asserting that her candidacy remains intact.
She also addressed rumors suggesting she had been offered $50 million to return to the NPP. "These claims are completely false," she remarked, emphasizing that she has neither accepted any money nor decided to abandon her independent bid.
During the interview with Asempa fm, radio host OB asked Morrison directly if she had stepped down, to which she reaffirmed, "I have not stepped down, and my campaign is still ongoing. I am fine." Morrison's statement puts to rest the circulating rumors as she continues her campaign for the 2024 elections in Agona West.
