Mr Andah at mini rally in Bawjiase in the Central Region this week, threw an open challenge to Hannah Tetteh to introduce her husband to the constituents. “I came here with my wife, and children.
Please tell Hannah to also come and show us her husband,” he said. Mr Andah, who is a first timer aspiring for the seat invited his wife to the stage and introduced her to the party supporters who had gathered at the rally amidst cheers and applauds.
