The Tema Metropolitan Chief Executive, Yohane Amarh Ashitey, has stated that the opposition National Democratic Congress can never thwart Almighty God’s agenda for the life of His Excellency the Vice President of the Republic of Ghana and Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia.

In an interview with journalists during the limited registration exercise by the Electoral Commission in Tema Community 4 on Saturday, Yohane Amarh Ashitey, who is also the chairman of the Tema Metropolitan Security Council and the Parliamentary Candidate of Tema East NPP said “NDC’s rough propaganda methods against Dr. Bawumia at the various registration centres are not working because the youth, who were bused by the NDC, are openly showering praises on the Akufo Addo-Bawumia government over free education”.

“Some NDC elements often misconduct themselves at the registration centres and engage in politics of lies against Dr. Bawumia over the economy, yet the youth in the queue often shun these NDC elements and praise the NPP government for implementing free SHS to the extent that some of them chanted “No Bawumia! No vote!”

The MCE, who is tipped to win the Tema East Parliamentary seat, added.

Meisuna Bowla Alhassan, Communication Officer of Tema East NDC and Evans Amarh, constituency Organizer of Tema East NDC were among the NDC executives who were shunned by the youth in the queue at the EC’s registration centre in Tema Community 4.

“Ladies and Gentlemen of the Press, from what I see and hear at the various registration centres, Dr. Bawumia has won the 2024 presidential election in advance, all the rough propaganda methods and the public media attacks on him over the economy wouldn’t work. Our brilliant Vice President has partnered President Akufo-Addo to achieve a lot for our dear nation. God’s plan for Dr. Bawumia on the drawing board can never be changed by the NDC. Infact, Dr. Bawumia is the next president of Ghana and the NDC can never thwart God’s agenda for his life”.

Yohane Amarh Ashitey, who was not flanked by anybody during the interview, concluded with a smile on his face.

The Tema East NPP Chairman, Nene Ofoe Teye-chu Agbadiagba IV, who is also a manager at the Ghana Ports and Harbours Authority later told journalists that NDC executives have developed the habit of misconducting themselves at the ECs registration centres.

“My second Vice Chairman, Stephen Aboagye, the Youth Organizer, Gilbert Nii Kwartei, the deputy Nasara Co-ordinator, Bawa Ustarz, Raymond Blankson, the deputy organizer, the Tema East NPP Organizer, Seth Agyapong, alias Shadow, the Communication Officer, Albert Kraku and other NPP executives including party officers of the Women’s wing have all been praised for the mature manner they observe at the registration centre,” Nene Ofoe Teye-chu Agbadiagba IV said.

“The Tema East NDC Communication Officer, Meisuna Alhassan misconducted himself by almost causing a melee at the registration centre and was arrested together with two others by the Tema Community One District Police Command. I had to plead for their release because we are all Ghanaians”. The respected Nene Ofoe Teye-chu Agbadiagba said.

MP for Tema East, Hon. Isaac Ashai odamtten, Kempes Ofosuware, alias “wire-wire”, former MCE for Tema and Richster Nii Amarh Amarfio were among the NDC gurus at the Tema Community One Police Station to show solidarity. The Tema East NPP Secretary and a Senior Staff of GPHA, Solomon Sackitey, was also at the Police Station lobbying for amicable settlement.
