However, speaking in an interview with GHONE TV, Afua disclosed that she did not intentionally hold on to the results from GWR; rather, she could not access her account."
“There is no way I will hold on to a result such as this, I’m a very strong personality and I believe in not giving up and regardless of the outcome be it successful or not successful I would have still shared with Ghanaians anyways.
”I spoke about a miscommunication with GWR, it had to do with my login account, I don’t have access,” she said.
The media personality to a greater extent revealed that due to her inability to access her account, there are no documents to publish to verify her disqualification.
“As I sit here, I don’t have an official document to even post on my social media that this is my disqualification letter, I can’t access my account,” she added.
