Nkonkonsa Celebrity Gossip From Africa
Afia Akoto, the deputy director of communications for the ruling New Patriotic Party, has revealed that she is no longer married to Chief Hamilton Biney, the former deputy national organiser of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).
Notwithstanding their membership in Ghana’s two most prominent political parties, which have been fiercely engaged in electoral competition since the country’s founding, the couple forged new ground when they made the decision to wed in 2020.
Speaking to NPP supporters in the Okaikwei North Constituency, where she would be running for the party’s parliamentary candidature in the general elections of 2024, Afia Akoto revealed that her marriage had ended.
She claimed that until they found out the marriage was over, her opponents were attempting to use it against her. She had married Chief Biney.
Akoto continued, claiming that her opponents are currently spreading a wide range of falsehoods about her, including the claim that she will fire the party’s current constituency executives.
“When I came at first, they were saying that how can we trust a person married to an NDC man, they didn’t know that the marriage had ended. After hearing that the marriage had ended, they are trying to find something different against me.
“They are always looking for something new against me but have you ever heard me saying something against them?” he quizzed in Twi.
Akoto, a former deputy CEO of MASLOC, added, “If I have been able to live with an NDC person, why can’t I live with my family, the NPP?… after trying so hard to use my marriage against me, they realised it did not exist, and now they are saying all kinds of things against me: ‘Afia is insulting us, Afia would sack the executive’. Oo!”.
