Abigail Abbey, Accra. 

Everytime election results are announced, we realise there are quite a number of spoilt ballots.  We always wonder why it always happens like that, but a revelation coming from the president of the Ghana Drunkards Association indicates that most of the spoilt ballots are as a result of people drinking and voting.

According to the president of the Association, Moses Drybone, Beverage Consumers and Bar Owners Association of Ghana also known as Ghana Drunkards Association was formed in 2015 and has a membership of over 3 million members all across Ghana. 

With their main objective of educating the masses especially drivers on responsible drinking, they also do in-depth research into which drinks are suitable for their members and the general public. 


Speaking to Nafti news, the President of the association, Moses Drybone disclosed that the association is embarking on a "DON'T DRINK AND VOTE" campaign to educate its members on how to vote come December elections, without spoiling the ballots.



 All what the Ghana Drunkards Association want to say to its members and Ghanaians is that "DON'T DRINK AND VOTE"
