Phillis Naa Koryoo Okunor (L) with chairman Stephen Ofosu Agyare
There is reportedly a huge divide among the leadership of the ruling National Democratic Congress in the Awutu Senya East Constituency.
According to reports, the division has been caused by a feud between the Member of Parliament for Awutu Senya East Constituency, Phillis Naa Koryoo Okunor, and the constituency’s NDC chairman, Stephen Ofosu Agyare.
An NDC executive in the constituency, who has been identified as the MP's spokesperson, claimed in a recent interview that his boss and the constituency chairman are at loggerheads over a failed marriage proposal.
He said that the chairman proposed making the MP his second wife, but she refused after initially agreeing to a deal they had.
The spokesperson said that Agyare claimed that Naa Koryoo agreed to marry him if he helped her become the NDC parliamentary candidate for the constituency in the 2020 election, but she did not stick to her word.
“One of the main things that has brought about this division is that he (the constituency chairman) wanted to marry Honourable Naa Koryoo, in addition to his wife. But the woman said ‘no’. Then he said, ‘It is the reason why I helped you to become an MP. So, if you knew you wouldn’t marry me, why did you accept my help then?’
“But she told him that, ‘You also did not say anything to me; I thought you were just helping me to campaign,’” he said in the Twi dialect.

Another executive of the constituency, identified as Kojo, who appeared to be on the side of the chairman, also claimed in a recent interview that the two are at loggerheads because the MP has not been giving Agyare the opportunities due him.
He claimed that the MP even denied the chairman a slot to watch the 2026 World Cup, which was distributed by the Presidency.
He alleged that the MP rather took the slot and gave it to her husband, who has been captured at the World Cup.
