The MP was in
the area the day after the body of a 57-year-old, John Kwame Asumang, was
recovered after he drowned following Wednesday’s downpour.
The deceased
tried crossing a bridge during the rains but drowned.
Residents
attributed his death to the poor state of roads and a broken bridge in the
area.
The MP, who
visited the scene on Friday, 23 June, the morning after news about the death of
the 57-year-old, was met with anger by his constituents.

The residents
booed him and some pelted stones and other items in his direction.
Mr. Anhwere
tried to explain himself, but the angry residents, as seen in a video, would
not listen and continued to molest him.
The Atwima
Nwabiagya South MP told Citi News that, but for the intervention of
the police, the situation would have escalated.
He however
rejected claims that he was mobbed.

“It rained in
the area and someone was reported dead and there has been agitation in the
community. The deceased’s brother called me to come over because they needed
some gravel to fill the place so that cars could ply the roads. When I went,
that thing happened, and they had to escort me and I left. That’s all.
Honestly, but for the police, it would have been a different story. When they
saw the crowd was increasing, they just escorted me to my car,” he recounted.
