The Eastern Regional Secretary of the ruling New Patriotic Party, Anthony Osei Adjei, has praised the Member of Parliament for Abuakwa North Constituency in the region, Gifty Twum Ampofo, for dashing out six brand-new motorbikes to support the Constituency’s 2024 elections campaign.
According to him, the MP’s gesture to the party shows that there is unity in the Constituency despite losing the Parliamentary bid to a different person.
“Our party has given many opportunities to most of our sitting Members of Parliament, but after losing the parliamentary primaries, they have dumped us and are contesting the 2024 parliamentary race as independent candidates, but Gifty Twum Ampofo respected the decision of the delegates and never left the party,” he added.
Anthony Adjei noted that Gifty Twum Ampofo’s continuous support and commitment indicate that she appreciates what the party has done for her in the past 7 years as cabinet member.
The Eastern Regional NPP Secretary used the opportunity and appealed to their Members of Parliament who genuinely said they were not contesting again and those who couldn’t retain their seats to emulate the outgoing Abuakwa North MP and return the same gesture to their constituencies to strengthen the campaign to enable them to enter every household to grab their votes to help them break the eight to retain power in 2025.
The Member of Parliament for the Constituency, Gifty Twum Ampofo on her part said, that donating 6 motorbikes to the party will help them to go to the remote areas in the Constituency where cars can’t go and sell the achievements of the NPP government to the residents over there to vote for them to remain in power.
Gift Ampofo added that she has served under the NPP government for seven years as Deputy Minister of Gender, Children, and Social Protection, and immediate past Deputy Minister of Education in charge of TVET, and a Lawmaker for eight years and donating the motorbikes to support the 2024 election campaign formed part of her appreciation to the party.
She then entreated the youth who are not working, especially the unemployed graduates, to pursue Technical and Vocational Education and Training (TVET) courses to enable them to create job opportunities for themselves rather than always depending on someone for daily bread.
Alhaji Seidu Ibrahim, the Chairman of the Constituency, received the motorbikes on behalf of his executives and thanked the MP, Gifty Twum Ampofo, for the kind gesture.
“We never thought that someone who has spent a huge amount of money on an election and couldn’t win can purchased us 6 motorbikes for to be use for our campaign and canvas votes to help Chief Buffalo who defeated her to maintain the seat for NPP and this is incredible,” he revealed.
