Akrofuom Regent declares support for Bawumia

The Regent of Akrofuom, Nana Anim Agyekum II, has pledged the full support of his people to the Vice President and Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia. 

As part of his Ashanti Regional tour, Dr. Bawumia visited the Akrofuom Constituency on Tuesday, where he engaged stakeholders to discuss his vision for Ghana. 

Welcoming Dr. Bawumia on behalf of the chiefs and people, Nana Anim Agyekum expressed appreciation for the development initiatives brought to the area under the NPP administration and assured Dr. Bawumia of their unwavering support.

“Here, our main occupation is petty trading, and we needed a good market for our traders. Now, we have a very big market among other projects,” he said, commending the work of the District Chief Executive and the NPP Parliamentary Candidate.

The Regent further urged Dr. Bawumia to extend their gratitude to President Akufo-Addo. “Future leader, please convey our gratitude to President Akufo-Addo. Tell him that the people of Akrofuom are very grateful for all he has done.”

Praising Dr. Bawumia for his wisdom and determination, Nana Anim Agyekum encouraged him to remain steadfast, affirming the community's faith in his leadership. “The way Ghanaians have embraced you, we have joined them. We have taken you as our son because we know you will not disappoint us.”

The chief also acknowledged the government’s District Road Improvement Project (DRIP) and encouraged the local authorities to expedite the road upgrades.

Dr. Bawumia, in response, assured the chiefs and people of his commitment to continue the development work started by the NPP in the community. 

He noted that, if elected, he would remain accountable to the people, as he would seek re-election, unlike his main opponent, who would not be eligible for a second term.
