The Member of Parliament for Manhyia North, Akwasi Konadu, has joined the New Patriotic Party’s campaign in the constituency to market their presidential candidate, Vice President Mahamadu Bawumia.
He has also embarked on a mission to educate voters on how to use the ballot sheet correctly.
He has embarked on a tour of key communities in the Manhyia North Constituency during which he directly talks to and interacts with registered voters to convince them on why Dr. Bawumia is the right choice to be voted for on December 7.
Speaking on Ghanakoma Morning Show on Akoma 87.9FM in Kumasi with Sir John, Akwasi Konadu, who doubles as the Deputy Minister for Lands and Natural Resources, appealed to the people to come out in their numbers to vote massively for the ruling NPP on the December polls.
According to him, he has spent time in some constituencies – Krofrom, Buokrom, Moshie Zongo, Duase and others where he did not only market the NPP candidate, but he also took the registered voters through practical and interactive sessions on how to cast a vote on the ballot sheet in the correct way without spoiling the ballot.
He reminded Ghanaians that the nation’s Constitution is for all citizens, not just Christians: “If you say you are a Christian and so you cannot vote for a Muslim to be president, then you are not practicing Christianity.”
He indicated that Dr. Bawumia engages and relates so well with all, and he will be a president for all without distinction.
The Manhyia North MP also announced plans to embark on massive walk tomorrow to garner more votes for the NPP.
The walk will start at Duase through Buokrom, Moshie Zongo, Airport Roundabout and end at Krofrom .
He encouraged citizens to reject religious intolerance and embrace all leaders, regardless of their faith.
He said divisions based on religion should not influence the choice of president in the coming elections.
He urged voters to focus on electing a leader with the wisdom and courage to advance Ghana, citing the Free Senior High School (SHS) program as an example of bold leadership of the NPP government.
He conveyed Dr. Bawumia’s promise to act as a ‘husband’ and a ‘son’ to widows and a ‘brother’ for orphans, vowing to take care of their needs when he becomes president.
He said, “to the widows, Dr. Bawumia says he will be your husband, and for those without children, he will be your son, and for those without brothers, he will be your brother. This is a covenant between him and you.”
He added that widows would not cry for lack of support because “your husband Bawumia has ‘married’ all of you and would be there for you.”
He emphasized Dr. Bawumia’s integrity and good intentions for the people of Ghana especially the youth and urged voters to back all the NPP parliamentary candidates.
He reminded voters of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia corrupt-free and scandal-free track record and his readiness to serve the country to greater heights.
