He promised to provide 30 taxis for drivers to work and pay, one factory for the Birim Central Municipality and if elected, he would share his MP Common Fund equally among the electoral areas of the constituency.
Mr Acquah pleaded with the delegates to vote for him at the upcoming primaries in order to fulfil his promise to the constituency.
