Former MP Peter Kwakye Ackah has urged the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to disqualify Zakaria Abdulai, headmaster of Obuasi Senior High Technical School, from contesting the party’s upcoming constituency elections. Ackah claims Abdulai’s candidacy would bring disgrace to the party, as he is accused of sexually abusing about 16 students at the school.
The Ghana Education Service (GES) has interdicted Abdulai following a JoyNews investigation, and a complaint has been lodged with the police. The allegations are still under investigation. Ackah appealed to the constituency vetting committee and national leadership to bar Abdulai from the race, stating there is no justification for his alleged actions.
He also criticized the Obuasi Municipal Chief Executive for failing to handle the matter properly after one victim’s family approached her.
