Many supporters of the ruling New Patriotic Party,(NPP) in Akwatia Constituency in the Eastern Region continue to impress upon the incumbent NPP Member of Parliament for the area to contest the December 7 Parliamentary election as Independent Candidate.
The MP, Mercy Ama Gyamfi alias Ama Sey a hairdresser by profession was defeated in the recent parliamentary primaries of the party by a young Legal Practitioner Ernest Yaw Kumi.
But supporters of the MP have maintained that some top National Executives of the NPP particularly the National Women’s Organizer Kate Gyamfua, the Regional Executives, and Some Constituency Executives schemed during the primaries in favour of Ernest Yaw Kumi who won by four(4) votes.
At a health walk held Sunday, September 7, 2020 by Friends of Ama Sey, saw thousands of supporters of the party and floating voters thronged the place to declare their support to the MP to contest as Independent Candidate.
They maintain that Ama Sey has not disappointed Akwatia Constituency since assuming office as MP for the area counted number of developmental projects executed by the MP and her visibility in the Constituency attending to various needs of the people.
According to them, NPP will lose the Parliamentary seat in Akwatia since they will vote “Skirt and blouse.”
