The New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, has called on constituents in Ejisu to prioritise continuity and progress by casting their votes for Kwabena Boateng.
He also warned against splitting votes among independent candidates, suggesting that such actions could inadvertently benefit the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its leader, John Mahama.
Addressing the electorate at a final campaign rally ahead of the Ejisu by-election on April 30th, Bawumia emphasised the significance of party loyalty and unity, cautioning against not supporting the NPP candidate.
He underscored the slim margin in parliament, with the NPP holding 138 seats against the NDC’s 137, highlighting the importance of every vote in securing a stronger mandate for the ruling party.
“The NPP government has improved the lives and the people of Ejisu than the NDC. Nothing really worked during the NDC era…MPs don’t sponsor projects; they lobby for projects from the government in power. In parliament, the NPP has 138 including the independent candidate while NDC has 137. And so, a vote for an independent means handing over power to NDC and John Mahama.
“And so that is why the NDC did not field a candidate for this by-election, they are sponsoring the independent candidate”, he said, adding “Let’s all come out in our numbers on election day and vote massively for Lawyer Kwabena Boateng to continue the late John Kumah’s work.”
