NDC parliamentary aspirant vows to win Nsuta-Kwamang-Beposo seat

Kwamang (Ash), Sept 28, GNA - Mr Donkor Fuseini, National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary aspirant for Nsuta-Kwamang-Beposo Constituency says he is sure to win the seat because the people are crying for change. The 30-year old health worker is contesting the seat along side Mr Kwame Osei Prempeh, incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for the Constituency who is also the Deputy Attorney-General and Minister of Justice and Mr Asafo Adjei, Director at the Ministry of Food and Agriculture (MOFA) also an NPP who has decided to go solo.

Speaking to the GNA in an interview at Kwamang on Friday, Mr Fuseini said though 30, his involvement in political activities and programmes had made him matured for the position. He said when given the mandate, he would help the youth to develop their talents to assist in the rapid development of the area as well as improve on their living standards. Mr Fuseini said he would sponsor brilliant students for the health sector and also help the self-employed. He said he would promote agriculture, the main stay of the people with small credit facilities to expand and develop their farms so that they could contribute effectively and positively towards the development of the country.

The aspiring MP who did not mince words pointed out that it was time the youth in politics got to know that they were not there to be used as tools for political mischief. "It is time for us also to take up leadership roles because we have the energy and the strength to do the work because parliamentary work is a service to the people," he said. Mr Fuseini said as a young man, he had realized the meaningful socio-economic and cultural contributions of the three Paramount Chiefs of Beposo, Kwamang and Nsuta Traditional Areas and he would seek their assistance to enhance the development of the constituency. 28 Sept. 08
