The Director of Communications of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Richard Ahiagbah, has conveyed his confidence in the NPP candidate, Kwabena Boateng, securing victory in the Ejisu by-election.
In a recent social media post on Tuesday, April 30, Ahiagbah urged the people of Ejisu to overwhelmingly support Boateng at the polls.
He stressed that a triumph for the NPP in the by-election would not only honor the late Dr. John Kumah but also symbolize the success of Vice President Bawumia and the NPP in the upcoming December 7th elections.
“Good people of Ejisu will make a statement today by voting massively for Kwabena Boateng, #2 on the ballot. A victory for the NPP in this by-election will not only honor the memory of Dr John Kumah but also signal the triumph of Bawumia and the NPP on December 7th. Let’s join hands and work towards a landslide victory for the NPP… It’s possible.”
Currently, voting is ongoing across all 204 polling centers in Ejisu to elect a successor for the former MP and Deputy Finance Minister, John Kumah, who passed away on March 7, 2024.
Six candidates, including three independent candidates, are competing in the by-election, with an expected participation of 106,812 voters.
Notably, Kwabena Owusu Aduomi, a former three-time NPP Member of Parliament for the constituency, is running as an Independent Candidate in the by-election.
Despite facing allegations of betrayal, Aduomi remains optimistic about his chances of winning the election and representing Ejisu once again.
