Ejisu NPP Primary: Kwesi Nyantakyi Shows Up At Voting Centre After Being Discharged

Kwesi Nyantakyi, the former president of the Ghana Football Association, was admitted to the hospital in advance of the New Patriotic Party’s parliamentary primary for Ejisu, but he was eventually discharged.

Nyantakyi, who is vying for the NPP parliamentary candidacy in the Ejisu Constituency, was hospitalized on Friday evening after complaining of stomach pains to his team.

A source from his campaign team confirmed to Citi News that Nyantakyi was hospitalized for treatment following his complaint.

According to the source, Nyantakyi’s illness may have been exacerbated by not eating all day due to his busy schedule ahead of Saturday’s polls, which included a planned meeting with delegates.

He received treatment at Legacy Hospital in Asokore Mampong and was discharged Saturday morning.

Following his discharge, Nyantakyi promptly headed to the voting centre to rally delegates to support his bid to replace the late John Kumah.

Mr. Nyantakyi acknowledged to the media that he was admitted to the hospital but that he is currently feeling healthy.
