The MP also mentioned other infrastructure developments under President Akufo-Addo, questioning the impact of former President Mahama, “Can you recall any significant contributions from former President Mahama?”.
Regarding the Agenda 111 initiative, he remarked, “There is progress in the Northern Region. Some hospitals have been roofed, and others are being plastered. It is essential to start somewhere, and we are witnessing tangible developments.”
On the issue of party support for the Bawumia-NAPO ticket, the MP assured that the majority of MPs backed the decision. “Every MP in the party supports the flagbearer. While there may be differing opinions, the National Council’s decision is clear. We are united in our support.”
The MP further stated the democratic nature of elections, acknowledging that not everyone may support a candidate, but it does not undermine their legitimacy.
