Mavis Hawa Koomson, an aspirant for the New Patriotic Party National Women Organiser position, has made a bold pledge. She promised to ensure that every woman in the party receives a pepper spray for self-defense if she wins the upcoming election.
Speaking on her vision, she noted that this practical safety measure mirrors practices seen in various developed countries. She believes protecting female members is vital, especially given recent political tensions and security concerns observed during events like the Ablekuma North parliamentary rerun.
Critics might laugh off the idea as unconventional local politics, but personal security remains a serious conversation in modern Ghanaian campaigns. Party delegates are currently weighing how leadership contenders plan to safeguard grassroots members on the campaign trail ahead of 2028.
