'Nyantakyi did not donate to NPP's 2016 campaign - Sammi Awuku 'rubbishes' notion

New Patriotic Party (NPP) Aspiring National Organizer, Sammi Awuku has debunked claims that Kwesi Nyantakyi, President of the Ghana Football Association (GFA), financed the party in the 2016 elections.

NDC Communicator, Sammy Gyamfi speaking on Peace FM's morning show 'Kokrokoo' on Friday, June 1, stated the FA Boss pumped huge money to ensure the victory of the NPP in the 2016 General elections.

To Sammy Gyamfi, the NPP is hiding under the pretence of arresting Kwesi Nyantakyi in an attempt to deceive Ghanaians.

But Sammy Awuku says the NDC Communicator's assertion is false because Mr. Nyantakyi is never the party's financier.

He explained that he may have given some monetary contributions to some members of the party as an act of gesture towards the political course of the individual but it doesn't mean he finances the party.



“It is not true. Nyantakyi did not donate to the NPP as a political party . . . Maybe, he donated to individuals which is allowed but not to the party,” he said.
