Wilson Arthur<\/strong><\/p>\nThe District Chief Executive (DCE)
\nfor Wassa East in the Western Region, Wilson Arthur has vowed to unseat the
\nNational Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for the area,
\nIsaac Adjei Mensah, if given the nod in the upcoming parliamentary primaries of
\nthe New Patriotic Party (NPP).<\/p>\n
The NPP will hold parliamentary
\nprimaries for orphan constituencies simultaneously across the country on
\nSeptember 28, 2019 and Wassa East constituency is one of those constituencies.<\/p>\n
He noted that the constituency needed
\na person committed to their welfare to champion the proper development of the
\narea.<\/p>\n
\u00a0\u201cAll that the constituency
\nneeds is a development oriented person to champion the developmental needs of
\nthe people\u201d, Mr. Arthur stated this in an interview.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mr. Arthur who had already submitted
\nhis nomination forms to contest in the NPP primaries in the constituency
\ndebunked claims that the area was the traditional stronghold of the opposition
\nNDC.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The two-time Parliamentary candidate
\nfor the NPP in the constituency noted that, with the experience he had gained
\nfrom his previous defeats in elections, it was time the NPP unseated the NDC in
\nthe 2020 elections.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u00a0<\/strong>He thanked
\nhis supporters who picked the nomination forms on his behalf and added that the
\nNPP was working to bring development to the constituents.<\/p>\n\u201cWe are doing this in order to
\nbreak the myth surrounding the claim that makes\u00a0\u00a0 the NDC think that
\nWassa East was their sole preserve\u201d, he explained.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to him, the NDC paid lip
\nservice\u00a0to the development of the\u00a0constituency\u00a0and shirked its
\nresponsibility to\u00a0cater for the\u00a0welfare of the constituents when the
\nparty was in power.\u00a0<\/p>\n
According to him, the incumbent NDC
\nMP, Isaac Adjei Mensah had failed to provide the needed development to improve
\nupon the lots of the constituents.\u00a0<\/p>\n
An ardent supporter of the 2016 NPP
\nparliamentary candidate for the area, Samuel Amoah indicated that in his three
\nyears as DCE, Mr Wilson Arthur had brought considerable level of development in
\nthe district.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cUnder the current NPP government,
\nthe district has witnessed unprecedented transformation. Wilson Arthur\u2019s
\nincomparable leadership has facilitated the establishment of three factories in
\nthe constituency\u201d.<\/p>\n
He mentioned them as a quarry factory
\nby Al-Mega, palm oil processing factory and a starch factory.<\/p>\n
\u201cThese factories are at varying
\ndegrees of completion and would create thousands of jobs for the unemployed
\nyouth and improve the local economy\u201d Mr Amoah noted.<\/p>\n
He continued \u201cAbout 56 youth have
\nbeen trained as mining guards and monitoring officers under the community
\nmining programme, while two are enrolled as drone pilots under the
\nInter-ministerial Committee on Illegal Mining (MCIM) project\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Samuel Amoah appealed to party
\nmembers to reward Wilson Arthurs\u2019 hard work by endorsing his nomination and
\nultimately voting for him in the coming elections.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
