Former minister denies giving fertilizers to NPP candidates, says they went through official channels.

Former Minister Dr Bryan Acheampong denied distributing government fertilisers to NPP parliamentary candidates before the 2024 elections, stating they were delivered through official district agricultural offices under the Ministry of Food and Agriculture, not political channels. Speaking during a campaign rally in Ejura on October 22, 2025, he emphasized that public funds cannot be directly allocated to candidates and that accountability rests with district-level officials. The remarks followed a challenge from NPP’s 2024 Ejura candidate, Gifty Ndomah, who disputed claims of improper distribution and presented evidence to counter the allegations.
