In a remarkable display of leadership and dedication to public safety, Akosua Asaa Manu, popularly known as Kozie, the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate for Adentan Constituency, swiftly intervened to address a potentially life-threatening situation in Ashaley Botwe’s Nii Ashaley Electoral Area.
On August 10, 2024, during her house-to-house campaign, Kozie responded decisively to the imminent danger posed by a dilapidated high-tension electric pole on the verge of collapse, carrying live cables.
Despite repeated appeals from residents, the current Member of Parliament has failed to address the issue.
Upon being informed of the situation by an elderly opinion leader, Kozie immediately recognized the gravity of the threat and vowed to take swift action.
The NPP Parliamentary Candidate, Kozie promptly contacted the relevant authorities, and within less than 24 hours, the Electricity Company of Ghana (ECG) dispatched engineers to replace the deteriorating pole.
This rapid response not only averted a potential disaster but also earned Kozie widespread admiration and gratitude from the community.
The Residents, who had long felt neglected, were astonished by the speed and efficiency of Kozie’s intervention, citing it as a clear demonstration of her #KozieCares mantra in action – a leader who listens, acts, and prioritizes the well-being of her constituents.
Kozie’s consistency in responding to the needs of constituents over the past few years has been remarkable, leading many to believe she will make a fine MP.
