The Member of Parliament for the Atiwa East constituency, Abena Osei Asare, has stated that they will work assiduously with the Akwatia NPP executives to secure the parliamentary seat for the NPP and demonstrate to the NDC that Akwatia is a no-go area for them.
She pleaded with the Akwatia constituents to vote for Solomon Asumado, the Parliamentary Candidate for the constituency, to enable them to retain their 88 Members of Parliament.
Currently, the New Patriotic Party has 87 MPs compared to the National Democratic Congress’s 188. Therefore, winning the Akwatia seat will increase their total to 88, which they believe is feasible.
Meanwhile, the Electoral Commission has scheduled the Akwatia by-election for September 2, 2025.
Abena Osei Asare admonished the NPP faithful in Akwatia, especially those who did not participate in the 2024 election, to set aside their differences and come out in large numbers to vote massively for Solomon Asumado in honor of the late MP for the constituency, Ernest Yaw Kumi.
The Atiwa East MP mentioned this during the Akwatia NPP’s delegates conference and campaign launch, where they unveiled Solomon Asumado to their members as their parliamentary candidate to represent them in the upcoming by-election.
“NPP is the only hope for Ghanaians because they have realized that NDC has deceived them, and it is our party that can help shape their standard of living,” she noted.
“So, therefore, we don’t want our numbers to decrease. We need Asumado to join us in Parliament and work hard to bring back the NPP to power in 2028 and change the fortunes of this country,” added Abena Osei Asare.
