Dr. Godfred Seidu Jasaw, the incumbent Member of Parliament for Wa East, says he is confident that National Democratic Congress delegates in the constituency will re-elect him in the party’s parliamentary primaries.
According to Dr. Jasaw, who is running for a second term, the constituency has seen progressive leadership during his tenure, even in an opposition government.
Speaking to the media after submitting his nomination form at Kpaglaghi, the former lecturer urged delegates not to be misled by lofty promises made by his opponents, as this could mislead their choices and stymie development in the constituency.
“In every election, there are always two outcomes, you either win or lose. I am confident that I will be retained. We have done the analysis, and we are satisfied that with the trend we are going, the kind of results we are showing, it is evident that Wa East people have realized that this is the time they are looking for. This is the kind of son they are looking for to continue to bring the development they so much need.”
He said, “this call for my re-election has been caused by the youth. The reason they are doing this is because of the quality of my two-year leadership. My advice for the delegates is to be careful about persons who come with lofty promises in the name of winning power.”
Mahama Salifu, the NDC’s Wa East elections director, urged all parliamentary candidates to be courteous during their campaigns.
“The party needs unity to snatch power from the New Patriotic Party (NPP), hence the need to remain civil before, during, and after the parliamentary primaries,” he stated.
Dr. Godfred Seidu Jasaw met with some branch executives and a cross-section of party faithful in the community before submitting the nomination form, where he shared his achievements as an MP and vision for the party in the Wa East.
The MP praised his accomplishments and urged delegates to give him a strong vote in the upcoming parliamentary primaries.
