She also advised those around Kennedy Agyapong to refrain from spreading misinformation to him, saying, “Akompreko, I am telling you, you are my younger sibling, if you open your mouth again and you do not seek the interest of the party… and those who have been speaking lies to him should be very careful because we know them,” said Essiam.

She added, “So, he should cool down, and I am telling Akompreko that I am a strong-willed woman like him, and I am capable of engaging in a showdown like him, so I urge him not to provoke a confrontation with people like us. I am urging the party foot soldiers that regardless of the camp that you belong to, any candidate who makes statements that could harm the party’s image will face consequences. … Honorable Akompreko, you are responsible for what comes out from your camp, just as Vice President Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia is responsible for anything from his camp. However, the intensity of the situation in one camp is higher than the other.”
