In order to prioritize continuity and progress, voters in Ejisu are urged to support Kwabena Boateng, the candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), by voting for Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

Additionally, he cautioned against dividing votes among independent contenders, arguing that doing so might unintentionally help the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and its leader, John Mahama, the opposition party.

Speaking to the public at the last campaign rally before the April 30th Ejisu by-election, Bawumia emphasized the need for unity and party loyalty and urged supporters to back the NPP candidate.

With the NPP holding 138 seats compared to the NDC’s 137, the Vice President emphasized the narrow margin in parliament and the significance of each vote in securing a larger 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.”
