The Central Regional Chairman of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Professor Richard Kofi Asiedu, has promised to do everything within his capacity to ensure the Cape Coast North parliamentary seat for his party in the upcoming December 2024 elections is secured.
Speaking at the constituency’s campaign launch, Professor Asiedu expressed his full commitment and support to the cause, saying, “I am ready to die for this constituency to retain the seat for NDC”.
He assured party members and supporters to remain calm stressing that the NDC is fully ready to challenge the New Patriotic Party (NPP) with determination and strength in the coming elections.
He went on to express his support for the re-election of the incumbent NDC MP, Dr. Kwamena Minta Nyarku, and accused the NPP’s parliamentary candidate for Cape Coast North, Ekow Horace Ewusi, of lacking credibility.
“The NPP candidate, Ekow Horace Ewusi, has a history with the galamsey excavators. How can someone with such baggage represent Cape Coast North? We will not allow it” he said.
Dr. Kwamena Minta Nyarku, the sitting MP, used the opportunity to highlight the achievements of his first term.
He mentioned many community projects, such as providing furniture, educational materials, scholarships, and supporting local businesses.
Dr. Nyarku also emphasized on how 65% of the NDC’s manifesto is dedicated to tackling youth unemployment and improving livelihoods, urging his constituents to vote for both him and the NDC flagbearer, John Dramani Mahama.
