Some of the aggrieved members who have defected are top executive members in the constituency like the Nsuta NPP women organizer, Cecilia Tenkorang, Dadiasoaba NPP former Youth organizer, Asare popularly known as Figo among others.
To show their seriousness of defecting to the NDC, they set the flags of the NPP and an elephant sculpture ablaze.
