The flagbearer of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has cautioned the people of Ejisu in their choice of a Member of Parliament to replace the late John Kumah.

He said the only person capable of continuing the good works of the former late MP is Lawyer Kwabena Boateng.

“Let’s all come out in our numbers on election day and vote massively for Lawyer Kwabena Boateng to continue the late John Kumah’s work,” he pleaded.

Speaking at the campaign rally in the constituency, Dr Bawumia further urged the electorates against voting for any independent candidate ahead of the April 30th election.

“The NPP government has improved the lives and the people of Ejisu than the NDC. Nothing worked during the NDC era . . . MPs don’t sponsor projects; they lobby for projects from the government in power. In parliament, the NPP has 138 including the independent candidate while the NDC has 137."

“And so a vote for an independent means handing over power to NDC and John Mahama.”

“That is why the NDC did not field a candidate for this by-election, they are sponsoring the independent candidate," Dr Bawumia said.
