Techiman South election violence regrettable – Adjei-Mensah Korsah

The minister-designate for Local Government, Decentralisation and Rural Development, Martin Kwaku Adjei-Mensah Korsah, has described the post-election violence that led to the death of three people in Techiman South on December 8, 2019, as most regrettable.

Eight persons were shot at the Techiman South election results collation centre during the 2020 elections.

During his vetting by Parliament’s Appointments Committee on March 5, 2024, Adjei-Mensah Korsah explained that the incident was regrettable because the New Patriotic Party and the National Democratic Congress formulated measures to ensure a peaceful election, which unfortunately ended up in violence.

“It was a very regrettable incident and a sad one and for the first time, the political parties came together to make peace but little did we know that what happened on December 8 would happen.”
