Kwame Adu-Darkwa and Paul Ansah Asare <\/strong><\/p>\n

Kwame Adu-Darkwa, who was
\nthe 2016 parliamentary candidate, and Paul Ansah Asare, a former Director General
\nof the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority (GPHA), are battling it out to lead
\nthe ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in 2020 for the Asuogyaman Constituency in
\nthe Eastern Region.<\/p>\n

The two have passed through
\nthe vetting process and are campaigning vigorously to wrest the seat from Thomas
\nAmpem Nyarko of the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC).<\/p>\n

Mr. Asare said a recent
\nsurvey in the constituency has made him the ideal candidate to win the seat for
\nthe NPP in 2020.\u00a0 The ex-GPHA boss has
\nbeen embarking on several activities including assisting some constituents in the
\narea in terms of education and health. Besides, he has given livelihood support
\nand employment skills to the people.<\/p>\n

On the other hand, Mr. Adu-Darkwa told DAILY
\nGUIDE<\/em><\/strong> after the vetting that \u201cthere is an unfinished business\u201d and it was
\nhis task to send the NPP to Parliament once again in 2020 after Kofi Osei-Ameyaw
\ndid it sometime ago.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Asuogyaman Constituency
\ndeserves an MP who can fight for the people. I\u2019m the best candidate for the
\nconstituency. I have proved my mettle,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have also run an energetic
\ncampaign against Mr. Nyarko, the current MP, who clearly was a wrong choice for
\nthe people because he is not performing and we are going to come back and win
\nthis election,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
