\"A A Plus is the Gomoa Central MP-Elect<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Member of Parliament-Elect for the Gomoa Central Constituency, Kwame Obeng Asare, popularly known as Kwame A Plus, has stated that he is engaging with the National Democratic Congress (NDC) representatives in Parliament.<\/p>\n

According to him, the NDC MPs have been in touch with him concerning the possibility of joining their caucus in Parliament, and that the discussions are progressing well.<\/p>\n

The MP-elect clarified that despite talks having started with the NDC parliamentary leadership, there has not been confirmation of him joining them, but this will be determined later.<\/p>\n

During an interview with TV3, when asked about the possibility of joining the NDC Caucus in Parliament, A Plus responded, \u201cWe are talking.\u201d<\/p>\n

He further indicated that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) has not reached out to him to join their members in Parliament after suffering a heavy defeat in the 2024 presidential and parliamentary elections.<\/p>\n

“The NPP as a party has not contacted me. I think they are scared to contact me. They don’t know who should come. I used to be a Nana Addo supporter. I think that they know very well that they have not treated me right. <\/p>\n

“They’ve been very ungrateful. But I don’t look at things that way. I think that we have to build this country,” he added.<\/p>\n

A Plus won the Gomoa Central Parliamentary seat in the Central Region.<\/p>\n

The musician-turned-politician beat the New Patriotic Party’s incumbent MP, Naana Eyiah Quansah, by over 2,000 votes.<\/p>\n

A Plus polled a total of 14,277 votes against Naana Eyiah Quansah’s 11,637 votes.<\/p>\n
