Dr Fred Kyei Asamoah
The newly elected New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary candidate for Offinso North in the Ashanti Region, Dr. Fred Kyei Asamoah, has urged all party supporters to put the just ended internal election behind them and start preparations for the December general election.
He has asked all failed aspirants to put aside their differences and work together with the party’s candidates to achieve victory for the NPP.
Dr. Asamoah made the call while speaking to the media after his victory over the incumbent Member of Parliament for Offinso North, Augustine Collins Ntim.
He added that now that the primaries were done, what was needed was unity of purpose, idea exchange, and determining how to effectively communicate the best electoral message to the Ghanaians in order for the party to continue its positive policies.
Dr. Asamoah also indicated that the smooth and peaceful manner in which the recent primaries were held attested to the unity and oneness among members of the party, and urged members to maintain their focus.
He used the opportunity to thank Offinso North constituency delegates for the honour bestowed upon him and the trust that they placed in him to represent them in the upcoming general election.
Dr. Asamoah pledged to bring all members of the party especially those who contested the primaries together and engage them during the upcoming campaign.
Dr. Kyei Asamoah won the election after he polled 378 votes to beat the incumbent, Augustine Collins Ntim who had 231 and Rockson Kwaku Adu Boahen who recorded one vote.
This is the first time Dr Fred Kyei Asamoah is contesting in the NPP primaries in the Offinso North constituency.
