35-year-old Nicholas Teye who ahead of the NPP’s 2020 General Elections appeared on campaign billboards for campaign basis has cried foul after years.

The billboards which had Nicholas’ face on them had the words “Remember Me. My livelihood depends on your vote”.

Speaking in an interview with TV3’s Armstrong Alogbor, Teye who is currently a teacher said that his life is under threat for promoting the NPP.

He says people feel he is part of the economic problems they are facing currently following his campaign activities for the NPP.

Nicholas says he disguises himself by wearing a nose mask and a cap whenever he gets out of his home for fear of being noticed and attacked.

“My major challenge is the threat. So any time I have to go out I have to put on a nose mask and sometimes a cap so that I have to disguise myself.

“Sometimes, I will be in the room, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday without going out because I am afraid if I step out I don’t know what will happen to me.

The moment they see you they are angry and they want to beat you because you are part of the reasons why they are suffering. Sometimes they will call you and threaten you.

“Sometimes my wife will [tell] me when [I] am going and [I] have the money I should take Uber and go out.”
