Spent Horse” Comment Sparks Controversy

Bagbin’s Endorsement of JM
Speaker Bagbin had earlier interpreted the numeral 8, chosen by NDC’s General Secretary Fifi Kwetey during the presidential election ballot positioning, as a symbol of great fortune for JM.
He posted on Facebook, “8 is excellence. Don’t break it. Choose it!”
