The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) 2024 parliamentary candidate for Ejura, Gifty Ndomah, has confronted Dr. Bryan Acheampong over an alleged fertiliser distribution prior to the 2024 polls.
Ndomah, on Wednesday, October 22, 2025, demanded clarity from the former Minister of Food and Agriculture, over his recent comments alleging that fertilisers were distributed to parliamentary candidates ahead of the 2024 elections but were not properly shared because some sought to smuggle them.
The confrontation occurred during Dr. Acheampong’s campaign tour of the Ejura constituency as part of his bid to lead the NPP in the forthcoming presidential primary.
Ms Ndomah, visibly displeased with the claim, challenged the former Minister’s assertion and presented evidence to dispute his account.
In response, Dr Acheampong, who is also the Member of Parliament for Abetifi, clarified that he did not personally distribute fertilisers to NPP parliamentary candidates during the 2024 polls.
He explained that the fertilisers in question were supplied through the Ministry’s district agricultural offices, not through political channels.
“The government can’t distribute fertilisers from the Ministry of Food and Agriculture to your parliamentary candidate on the ticket of a political party. That’s not how government funds are used,” Dr Acheampong stated.
“When the fertilisers are sent to the district, then during its distribution, as your party is in government, you can have an influence, but in terms of accountability and responsibility, it is not in your hands.”
