The Member of Parliament for Kwadaso Constituency in the Ashanti Region, Professor Kingsley Nyarko has been caught on camera handing over an envelope suspected to contain cash to some Electoral Commission (EC) officials at a polling centre in the ongoing by-election at Ejisu.
In a viral video trending on social media, Mr. Nyarko was seen surreptitiously pulling the white envelope from his pocket and placing it on the table in front of the EC officials.
