The New Patriotic Party’s Parliamentary Candidate for Suhum Constituency in the Eastern Region, Frank Asiedu Bekoe affectionately called ‘Protozoa‘ has shown his heartfelt gratitude to President Nana Addo, Chief of Staff, Akosua Fremah Osei Opare, and the Vice President, Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia for making him who he is today.
According to him, being nicknamed MPEGYAHENE in the area reflects his massive support from the aforementioned people and dignitaries, hence, his handwriting with developmental projects in the area.
“For Suhumman to see more of these infrastructure projects and continue creating more jobs for the people in the area as well as to save Ghana from moving backward it is important for everybody especially the youth to get involved in the upcoming December 7 polls to vote for Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia to become the next President,” he pleaded.
Protozoa described former President and the flagbearer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), John Mahama, as driver banza ( a bad driver), indicating that Ghanaians have seen his leadership style before and therefore mistakenly handing him the ‘nation’s car’ will be a doom for the people.
Frank Asiedu Bekoe added that looking at the work the NPP government has executed in the last 7 years, they deserve continuation to make the country further better.
“While the visionary leader, Dr. Bawumia is creating more job opportunities for the youth especially, the kayayeis to eliminate them from the streets but the only support former President John Dramani Mahama could offer them was to give them pans to keep on carrying things in the markets without thinking about their future that is why Ghanaians should kick against his second coming because such person doesn’t qualify to lead the country as President,” he noted.
Protozoa made these remarks at the Suhum main lorry station on Friday, August 9, when the flagbearer of NPP, Dr. Alhaji Mahamudu Bawumia, visited the constituency as part of his tour of the Eastern Region.
His statement was borne out of contention as to why Ghanaians must overlook John Mahama and vote for Dr. Bawumia come December 7.
The Member of Parliament for Abetifi Constituency in the Eastern Region who doubles as the Minister of Food and Agriculture, Dr. Bryan Acheampong, said although Dr. Bawumia was initially disturbed after Protozoa unseated the incumbent MP, Ɔboafo Kwadjo Asante in the primaries, he had to take immediate action to ensure peace that disunity does not tear the party apart.
“To ensure peace and unity among them, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia went to Ɔboafo Kwadjo Asante’s residence and assured him that if he was elected as President, he wouldn’t forget about him in his government and urged him to let the bygones be bygone and rally behind the party to retain power in 2024.
Again, to set the record straight, Dr. Bryan Acheampong said it is not true that Ɔboafo Kwadjo Asante is planning to contest the Suhum parliamentary seat as an independent candidate, as some people are speculating per the dialogue he had with him on camera.
