It was a sad day in Tema West during the ongoing Electoral Area elections following the alleged assault of 2024 parliamentary aspirant, Robert Richard Suapim.
The incident reportedly occurred after a brief altercation during the electoral process. Kankam Boadu , a known leading supporter of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, is alleged to have slapped Robert Richard Suapim twice after the latter described him as “diabolical.”
The incident temporarily disrupted the electoral proceedings before calm was restored.
According to eyewitnesses, Kankam Boadu had allegedly used provocative language towards Mr. Suapim throughout the process, but Mr. Suapim did not respond until the exchange that led to the confrontation. Read Also: Government Freezes Cocoa Prices to Protect Farmers

Investigations into the incident are expected to continue. http://dailydemocratnewsonline.com
