Branch Elections at Agama's Electoral Area and Agama's Rigging Machine

Politics of Deceit, Betrayal and Unkept Promises

Chapter 7 continues (Part 2)

(Flashback to the branch elections held at the Tiny Flowers. Agama is present; Maame Gyata is present. Ward coordinator and the constituency election committee is present. The purpose of the meeting is to elect new branch executives for the National Democratic Congress at Agama's Electoral Area. The battle line is drawn. It is a straight contest between Agama's poorly financed candidates and Lawyer's candidates. Agama wins a couple and loses a couple of votes. It is now the turn of the branch organizer and it is clear that Potoo will lose to his rival who is a carpenter, almost unknown in the area. Potoo keeps calling his supporters to come and vote, but the election committee had no choice than to carry on with the election. 

Maame Gyata paces up and down, clearly worried about this particular election. She takes her phone, calls people to come and vote for Potoo. She is now visibly shivering. She comes closer to Agama, whispers a few words, but Agama screams at her)

Agama: (in Hausa) tey ki za ma! (Go and sit down) (Maame Gyata maintains her calm composure in public. She will deal with him later at home for daring to embarrass her in public. So lucky Potoo wins. However, I suspected foul play)

(Next came the election of the branch secretary. Lawyer's most formidable candidate is in the race. He is the main reason why Agama is here. Mr Foniface must lose at any cost. First round of voting results in over voting)
