Oforikrom Residents Root For Claudia Lumor

Claudia Lumor

 

Scores of residents in the Oforikrom Constituency, Ashanti Region, are appealing to the delegates of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) to vote for Claudia Abena Lumor Kwarteng as the NPP Parliamentary Candidate.

The residents noted that they are eager to vote for the businesswoman and CEO of Glitz Africa, Claudia Abena Lumor Kwarteng, to increase the votes of NPP, since they have tried all the male candidates in the area, and haven’t achieved any significant developmental projects in the deprived communities across the constituency.

They indicated that Cluadia Lumor, who hasn’t become an MP yet, has initiated some policies that will improve the living standards of the constituents, including health, agriculture, education, sports and talent development, among others. They believe she will do more when given the nod.

During a series of engagements with the constituents, she noted that her desire to contest the seat followed her passion for the Oforikrom Municipality since she was born and raised in the community, and that the progress of constituency was dear to her heart.

“I have lobbied and supported the constituency with several developments, and with the character and maturity I’ve built for myself over the years, if our MP is not going again, I know I will be able to bring a lot of developments and unity to the community,” she stated.

She stated some of the developmental projects she has secured as astroturf in Kotei, a football academy, renovation of schools in the municipality, a medical support system in the area, and support towards the building of NPP’s Oforikrom office.

Claudia Lumor said many of the people in the area were engaged in business and it was one of her priorities to boost entrepreneurship through lobbying for business incentives for the people, and improving the business activities in the area, to enhance their economic livelihood.

Describing herself as ‘a solution-driven leader’, Claudia indicated she was ready to serve them when given the nod, to propel the development of Oforikrom.

She further assured that she would secure scholarship opportunities for brilliant students in the constituency.

Lumor, 43, a publisher and founder of Kollage Media, expressed her commitment to the party and outlined her vision for the constituency.

In her pursuit to contribute to the political landscape, Lumor emphasised the importance of more women taking on active roles in politics. Despite a successful 13-year career in business, including founding Glitz Africa under Kollage Media, Lumor sees politics as an avenue to serve her constituents.

Lumor is facing four other male aspirants in the upcoming parliamentary primaries. She is tipped to win the slot after sitting MP Emmanuel Marfo joined the list of growing MPs in the Ashanti Region who did not seek re-election.

Appealing to delegates, she called for a more intentional approach in electing candidates who can lead the party to appreciate more votes for the NPP presidential candidate, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Lumor also envisions a future where her leadership brings positive change and paves the way for more women to engage in politics.
