It\u2019s his right. But I\u2019m surprised about his utterances. In 2008, NPP cabinet minister was the MP for Ejisu and he Aduomi defeated him. That was right for him to topple him. He was happy right?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut when Aduomi was also toppled, then he turned his back at the NPP and he is making wild allegations, is that right? Aduomi saying NPP wants to rig the polls, was the polls rigged for him when he was elected as NPP MP then?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>President Akufo-Addo then advised Aduomi that if he is with the \u201cButterfly or an Umbrella, he should concentrate on his agenda and stop making allegations about the NPP. I have heard that he said he brought roads to Ejisu, he should show his roads to me. I, as President, give order for roads to be constructed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dr. Bawumia, on his part, also said a vote for an independent candidate is a vote for the NDC, alleging that the NDC is secretly supporting the independent candidate, Owusu Aduomi, and that is why the NDC did not take part in the Ejisu by-election.<\/p>\n<p>He stated emphatically that a vote for an independent candidate would stall the development of Ejisu, stressing that they should vote for the NPP candidate to ensure a speedy growth of Ejisu.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the projects you see here are from NPP, it\u2019s either Nana or Kufuor era. Governments bring development, if you vote for an independent candidate, where can he bring the development?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMPs don\u2019t use their pocket money for development, they need to lobby in government for projects, that\u2019s why you should vote for Lawyer Kwabena Boateng to continue with John Kumah\u2019s good works,\u201d Dr. Bawumia stated.<\/p>\n<p>According to Dr. Bawumia, the NPP currently has 138 seats in Parliament, including an independent candidate, and the NDC has 137 seats, so \u201cif you vote for an independent candidate and he joins the NDC, then you have given power to the NDC, is that what you want?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you vote for an independent candidate, automatically you vote for John Mahama and NDC,\u201d he stated, adding that the NDC would destroy all the good works of the NPP administration, including the Free Senior High School (SHS) policy, so the electorate should reject the NDC.<\/p>\n<p>A minute\u2019s silence was observed for the late John Kumah at all the campaign venues.<\/p>\n<p><strong>FROM I.F.
