Angry residents of the Atwimah Nwabiagya South Constituency of the Ashanti Region angrily hooted at and chased off their MP, Emmanuel Adjei Ahwire, after a recent visit to the area.
The residents were appalled at the poor state of roads in the constituency and poured at their anger on the legislator who was in town for his ‘Talk To Your MP’ tour.
Video shared by GhOne Tv on Twitter shows the heated moment the Member of Parliament was chased away in his posh car.
Honourable Ahwire paid a call on the people of Kobeng on the latest leg of his tour to ask them about issues affecting their lives.
The angry residents did not allow the event to go on, chasing him off completely out of anger.
They reportedly threw items at him as well to register their displeasure.
His security team had to whisk him away and restore calm in the community.
