The youth of Northern Gwira which is a suburb of Evalue Ajomoro Gwira declare their full support for their Member of Parliament, Kofi Arko Nokoe.

According to the youth, the hard work of their MP ought to be recognised hence the reason they are weighing their support behind him ahead of the 2024 elections.

In a statement, the youth said “ …Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe is our hope in breaking this one-term curse which has been hunting our constituency and also because of what we have witnessed from his community support initiative from Ahomkakrom, Kutukrom, Sikaneasem, Maham, Bibiani- Nsuaem, Jampele, Bekoasi, Debolase, Tebakrom, Drawl, Opokukrom and all the area up here.

“Its worth being noted that the Evalue Ajomoro Gwira is a strong hold of the NDC but we swing MP’s every four years, an act that has caused us more harm than good. We always loose out to the NPP because of inner bickerings from self centered leaders of the party in the constituency and this time around we the youth are not ready to tolerate such trivialities from them,” the statement added.

The youth added that they believe their MP can win the 2024 elections.

“…In this coming 2024 elections, We believe it’s only Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe who can win the seat once again the for the NDC especially because he will again break even the votes from Evalue if the ousted former MP Catherine Afeku should constest and use the Gwira votes especially from here for the icing on the cake just as happened in the last elections and it is the reason why we are giving him our support this time around also,”

Below is the statement

NORTHERN GWIRA YOUTHS OF EVALUE AJOMORO GWIRA PLEDGE OUR FULL SUPPORT FOR HON KOFI-ARKO NOKOE OUR MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT

We want it to be known with no equivocation that we the youth of the Northern Gwira which is a suburb of Evalue Ajomoro Gwira declare our full support for Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe, our hardworking member of parliament for our constituency. We believe that by supporting Hon Nokoe to break the jinx by winning the next election will make Evalue Ajomoro Gwira a no go area for the NPP and Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe is our hope in breaking this one- term curse which has been hunting our constituency amd also because of what we have witnessed from his community support initiative from Ahomkakrom, Kutukrom, Sikaneasem, Maham, Bibiani- Nsuaem, Jampele, Bekoasi, Debolase, Tebakrom, Drawl, Opokukrom and all the area up here.

In 2019 during the primaries, an indigene of this area by name Kuah Dickson contested but lost to Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe but we threw in our support to work for his victory after the primaries by moving our election fortunes from 2352 votes for the NDC Parliamentary in 2016 to over 4000 votes in 2020. We the youth of Northern campaigned marvelous for him to win despite the lost from *Kuah Dickson*who is our brother.

Its worth being noted that the Evalue Ajomoro Gwira is a strong hold of the NDC but we swing MP’s every four years, an act that has caused us more harm than good. We always loose out to the NPP because of inner bickerings from self centered leaders of the party in the constituency and this time around we the youth are not ready to tolerate such trivialities from them.

All the agitations in constituency is from the Constituency Chairman because he feels that his wife must become the Parliament Candidate by hook or crook, and has been causing frustration since day one, upon all the advice from the regional level.

In this coming 2024 elections, We believe it’s only Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe who can win the seat once again the for the NDC especially because he will again break even the votes from Evalue if the ousted former MP Catherine Afeku should constest and use the Gwira votes especially from here for the icing on the cake just as happened in the last elections and it is the reason why we are giving him our support this time around also.

Finally we wish to humbly plead that after His Excellency John Dramani Mahama and Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe victoryin 2024 the Northern Gwira should be considered in the appointment for the MCE for the first time in the history of our constituency.

We want to finally state that we are against any tribal motivated agenda by anybody claiming the all we the Gwira Youths are against the sterling performance of Hon Kofi Arko Nokoe after just two years in leadership and for the record we don't support any act of nepotism and family and friends where a Constituency Chairman seeks to push his wife to contest the mpship for reasons beyond anybody's understanding because the best time to make this constituency an NDC strong hold is now and not tomorrow. Thank you.

Eye Zu, Eye Za Za, Ey3 Victory 2024.
