Tension in Twifo Atti-Morkwa NPP as constituency youth organizer bites off polling station secretary’s finger

Tension is rising within the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Twifo Atti-Morkwa Constituency of the Central Region following a violent clash between the Constituency Youth Organizer, Kwadwo Debrah, widely known as “Last Two,” and Polling Station Secretary Frank Kwaku Baah.

The altercation turned bloody when Kwadwo Debrah bit off Frank Kwaku Baah’s finger, leading to his hospitalization at Twifo Praso Government Hospital due to severe bleeding.

The incident occurred during a meeting with the national leadership, who were investigating the party’s heavy defeat in the 2024 general election.

According to Frank Baah, during the meeting, some polling station executives criticized the constituency executives for the defeat. Kwadwo Debrah, the constituency youth organizer, unhappy with some of the comments, attacked Baah without provocation, slapping him from behind and ultimately biting off his finger.

Frank Baah has called for justice, stating that he has been left maimed. “I’m still in shock and pain,” he said in an interview with GHOne News’ Yaw Boagyan.

“I demand justice for this heinous act. The party must take action against Debrah and ensure that he faces the consequences of his actions.”

The case has since been reported to the Twifo Atimorkwa District Police Command for further investigation, but no arrest has been made yet. The police have promised to investigate the matter thoroughly and bring the perpetrator to justice.

The incident has sparked outrage within the party, with many calling for Debrah’s immediate suspension and expulsion.

Meanwhile, the party’s national leadership has yet to speak publicly about the incident.
