One of the candidates Stephen Asamoah Boateng, popularly known as Asabee, accused his competitor, Stephen Ayensu Ntim, of vote-buying.

The two were considered the top runners in the race to replace the outgoing chairman, Freddie Blay.

But hours to the commencement of the polls, Stephen Asamoah Boateng told the media he had evidence that his competitor was giving out money for votes.
