The 2012 New Patriotic Party parliamentary candidate for Lower Manya, Dedo Diffie Kusi Agyarko says she stands the best chance of winning the Lower Manya Parliamentary seat for the party.<\/p>\n
She is also promising the party she will be the first person to win the NPP a seat in any of the seven Dangme-speaking Constituencies. Madam Dedo was the NPP candidate in the 2004 election, polling over 15,000 votes then, as against the incumbent MP, Michael Teye Nyaunu\u2019s 18,000.<\/p>\n
This result is the closest the NPP came to winning a seat in Krobo. The NDC, then in opposition, had claimed she was not fully Krobo, a claim she says largely accounted for her defeat.<\/p>\n
But she has told Joy News that the people of Lower Manya have now realized the failure of the incumbent MP, Michael Teye Nyaunu and have therefore invited her to come and stand again. And she said it won\u2019t be too difficult for her to win the seat.<\/p>\n
\u201cPushing a vote from 9,000 to almost 16,000 is no mean feat. Unfortunately, that was not enough to win the vote. So I am coming back and this time I am taking the seat. This time I don\u2019t even see a contest,\u201d she told Joy News\u2019 Benjamin Tetteh.<\/p>\n
She added; \u201cI think I am pretty popular in the area and I was basically pulled to come back and take the seat, this time,\u201d she added. The ruling NDC has been winning the Krobo seats since 1992. This is Michael Nyaunu\u2019s fourth term in office.<\/p>\n
But the NPP candidate says the NDC has failed the people of Krobo, and this time, they will vote Nyaunu out of parliament.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think the NDC has been in that area for long enough for the people to realize that the NDC will never do anything for them, especially now it looks to me that the NDC is spoiling its own game in the constituency,\u201d in apparent reference to Michael Nyaunu\u2019s utterances against President John Evans Atta-Mills.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith what is happening in the NDC, I\u2019m not even sure he will be able to come back. So the NPP does have a good chance,\u201d she concluded.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
