Dr. Palgrave Boakye-Danquah, the Government Spokesperson on Governance and Security and a former parliamentary aspirant in the Abuakwa North Constituency, accompanied the Parliamentary Candidate, Nana Kwame Addo Frimpong, on a visit to the Roman Catholic Church in Kukurantumi. This visit took place on a Sunday and served two primary purposes: to worship with the church members and to seek divine guidance and protection as Ghana approaches the crucial December 7 elections. The representatives used this opportunity not just for spiritual engagement but also to encourage the church members—who are eligible voters—to support Nana Kwame Addo Frimpong in retaining the parliamentary seat and to back the party’s presidential flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in his bid for the presidency.
During the visit, Nana Kwame Addo Frimpong outlined his commitment to the development of the Abuakwa North area. He urged the congregation to support the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in its campaign to continue the many developmental projects initiated under the party’s governance. Emphasizing education, health, and human empowerment, he highlighted the ongoing initiatives aimed at alleviating unemployment, particularly among the youth. By positioning himself as a candidate dedicated to these causes, Frimpong sought to foster a sense of urgency among the voters to maintain the political status quo that has enabled these developments.
Dr. Palgrave Boakye-Danquah further reaffirmed the party’s achievements under the Akufo-Addo-Bawumia administration. He passionately called for the electorate to deliver a strong vote in favor of Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, arguing that a continued NPP governance is essential for maintaining the progress witnessed across various sectors in Ghana. He positioned the upcoming elections as crucial for the electorate’s future and pushed for a unified response from voters to safeguard the gains made during the current administration’s tenure.
Dr. Boakye-Danquah also championed the credentials of Nana Kwame Addo Frimpong, asserting that his track record and unwavering commitment to improving the lives of constituents makes him a trustworthy representative. He stressed the importance of constituency representation, urging church members to consider Frimpong’s suitability for the parliamentary role. By focusing on trust and commitment to development, Dr. Boakye-Danquah aimed to alleviate any concerns the constituents may have regarding the effectiveness of their next parliamentary candidate.
As part of his message, Dr. Boakye-Danquah encouraged the church members to reflect on the tangible benefits they have received from NPP governance in recent years. He pointed to various projects and initiatives that have positively impacted communities and urged the voters not to take these developments for granted. By illustrating the direct relationship between political support and local improvement, he aimed to galvanize support for the party and its candidates as vital to the constituency’s future.
The visit concluded with both Dr. Boakye-Danquah and Nana Kwame Addo Frimpong expressing hope for a strong turnout in the upcoming elections. They appealed to the electorate to make informed choices based on past achievements, stressing the significance of their votes in sustaining progress in the Abuakwa North Constituency and the nation as a whole. By fostering a spirit of unity, development, and trust, they sought to positively influence the church members’ voting behavior in the crucial months leading up to the elections.
