Running mate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has appealed to voters in the Tano North Constituency to back the party’s parliamentary candidate, Dr. Gideon Boako, in the upcoming general elections.
Speaking to a crowd in Yamfo, as part of his nationwide campaign, Dr. Prempeh emphasized the value of Dr. Boako’s competence and trustworthiness, describing him as an asset for both the constituency and the nation.
Highlighting Dr. Boako’s political conduct, Dr. Prempeh (Napo) expressed confidence that Boako’s presence in Parliament would enhance its effectiveness.
“Dr. Boako’s election would bring both credibility and effectiveness to the parliamentary role, which will benefit the constituency and the nation as a whole,” Napo said. He further urged NPP parliamentary candidates to intensify their campaign efforts to ensure the party secures a commanding majority in Parliament.
Reflecting on the challenges the Akufo-Addo administration faced due to an evenly divided Parliament, Napo stressed the importance of avoiding such situations to ensure smoother legislative processes in the future.
He called for unity within the party, urging members to set aside internal differences to focus on the collective goal of winning the 2024 elections.
Joining Napo in supporting Dr. Boako, the Member of Parliament for Assin Central, Kennedy Agyapong, also praised Boako’s campaign efforts. Speaking at a Youth Connect Programme in Yamfo, Agyapong commended Dr. Boako and the Tano North constituency executives for their mobilization efforts, calling the turnout “unprecedented.”
“The youth turnout and enthusiasm we’ve seen here is unmatched compared to other constituencies we’ve visited,” Agyapong noted, expressing optimism about the NPP’s chances in the upcoming elections. He urged Ghanaians, especially the youth, to rally behind Dr. Boako and the party’s presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, emphasizing that their combined leadership would drive significant development.
The event also featured contributions from Hon. Freda Prempeh, Member of Parliament for the area, who called on constituents to vote massively for Dr. Boako and Dr. Bawumia in the upcoming December polls.
