Dec. Polls: Man refuses to descend from a Telephone Mast until Akufo-Addo wins

The 2020 elections is just around the corner and the ‘Drama’ that comes with it has not yet ceased.

The life of a young man will still be in danger until the Electoral Commission of Ghana has announced the winner of the 2020 Presidential election.

The gentleman popularly known as Ayoma, believes in his thirties has climed to the top of a mast awaiting patiently for the NPP’s flagbearer Akufo-Addo to be declared as the winner come Monday, December 7.

Abusua FM’s James Kwasi Oppong reported that the man from Asenua Community in the Kwabere East Municipality in the Ashanti Region climbed up the telecommunications mast with a Flag of Ghana, a gallon of water and some food items.

“He has found himself a place to sit on top of the mast. His bag and gallon of water are all close to him. He told people in the area he was going to climb up the mast and until President Akufo Addo is declared winner in the December polls, he will remain there,”

The Assembly member of the Asenua Electoral Area, Kaakyire Asumadu told host of Abusua Nkomo, Kojo Marfo, the man had embarked on similar missions before but was taken down by the Fire Service.

He indicated that all his attempts to convince him to rethink his perilous decision had not yielded any results since he started communicating and gesturing signs of plea to him at 2 o’clock am.

“I have now decided to go report to the police to see how they can deal with the matter,” he averred.

Meanwhile, several people in the Asenua community have gathered at the base of the mast scared of what might happen if the man tripped.
