Osabarima Nana Abrokwa Gyanpem IV, the chief of Akyem Aduasa in the Eastern Region, has promised to support Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, the flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party, with 99.9% of the vote in the December 7 general elections.
Osabarima Gyanpem made the statement while addressing a mammoth gathering who had gathered to meet Dr. Bawumia during his visit to the Akyem Swedru constituency in the Eastern Region on Tuesday, August 20.
While praising the Vice President for his outstanding work as Veep, the chief also extended gratitude to the Member of Parliament, Hon. Kennedy Osei Nyarko, for spearheading numerous development initiatives during the NPP administration.
“Akyem Swedru is the mini-world Bank of the New Patriotic Party. We’re all aware. In this 2024 elections, we’re not giving you 70 nor 80 percent, we will give 99.9% of votes”, he stated.
Osabarima also applauded the Veep for his decision to review article 66 of the 1992 constitution, which, after its successful revision, will give more power to the chiefs.
Dr. Bawumia indicated that the revision of article 66 will allow the chiefs to handle domestic issues and pass their judgment.
