Kwame Asare Obeng (A Plus)
The Ghanaian political activist and media personality, Kwame Asare Obeng widely known as Kwame A Plus has outlined the projects from the NDC which brought victory at the Assin-North by-election.
In the news virally, some crop of Ghanaians claims that the victory of the Assin-North parliamentary seat at the just-ended by-election was unjust.
To the said group of people, the NPP candidate should have won the by-election. They believed that the NPP has done enough infrastructural projects for the people of Assin-North yet they did not return their applause in the by-election.
Kwame A Plus defended the victory of the Assin-North seat for the NDC candidate by setting the records straight with facts and evidence on the grounds.
He sounded crystal clear that the Former President of Ghana, John Dramani Mahama in 2016 undertook gigantic projects in the Ashanti Region, however, he lost massive votes from the said region.
The victory from the 27th June 2023 by-election at the Assin-North constituency is a testimony (awakening their stronghold from slumber) that JDM has done massive work that needs to be taken into consideration for casting votes.
Kwame A Plus’ submission has a list of projects the Mahama-led government rolled out in the stronghold of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Ashanti Region.
The listed below projects were executed by the Mahama-led administration yet he lost the general elections however, the said projects projected the party higher making the people of Assin-North vote for Hon. James Gyakye Quayson.
