Mahama Touts Ekow Kwainoe’s Achievement: Urges Electorate to Vote Massively for Him

HE John Mahama Endorses Dr. Ekow Kwainoe

In a three-day campaign tour to the Central Region, His Excellency John Dramani Mahama, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Presidential Candidate for the 2024 elections, has called on voters in the Ekumfi Constituency to support Hon. Dr. Othniel Ekow Kwainoe in his bid to secure a seat in Ghana’s Parliament on December 7, 2024.

The former President made this appeal on Saturday, November 9, 2024, during a community engagement at Ekumfi Immuna. Mahama’s endorsement of Dr. Kwainoe stems from the candidate’s unwavering commitment to development in Ekumfi, even prior to assuming an official position as a Member of Parliament (MP). He highlighted one of Kwainoe’s notable initiatives; the reshaping and resurfacing of the Immuna road as a testament to his dedication.

Cheerful Party Faithful

Mr. Mahama acknowledged that Kwainoe’s intervention on the Immuna road greatly facilitated their journey to the community, which would otherwise have been prolonged significantly due to the road’s previous condition. He assured residents that, if elected, he would ensure a more extensive upgrade of the Immuna road along with other critical roads in the constituency to promote economic activities and drive development.

For Mahama, a victory in the upcoming elections will mean the opportunity to complete his second term, reset and restore the nation’s progress, and deliver good governance following the mess under the current administration. He emphasized that, Dr. Ekow Kwainoe’s election would provide Ekumfi Constituency with dependable advocate in Parliament serving as a catalyst for sustainable development.
