The ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) has expressed confidence in winning the Ejisu by-election, slated for Tuesday, April 30, 2024.

In an interview, the National Organizer of the party, Henry Nana Boakye confidently stated that; “Clearly Ejisu is NPP and NPP is Ejisu…we do not see that any independent candidate can win the Ejisu Constituency.

“We have a vibrant and energetic lawyer and we are strategically positioning the party to win this hands down”.

His comments come at a time, when the Electoral Commission has closed nominations on Thursday, April 18, 2024, with some candidates racing against time to submit their forms at the EC’s office in the Ashanti Region.

The members  of the party have started their campaign in the constituency, aiming to seek victory for their parliamentary candidate, Kwabena Boateng who is at the second position on the ballot slot.

The EC has currently cleared six candidates to contest in the by-election.

According to their positions in the slot, the six candidates are Esther Osei (CPP), Kwabena Boateng (NPP), Beatrice Boakye (LPG), Kwabena Owusu Aduomi (Independent), Gabriel Agyemang Joseph (Independent), and Attakorah Joseph (Independent).

The NPP executives in their campaign message claimed that Kwabena Owusu Aduomi, the former Member of Parliament for Ejisu, running as an independent candidate, has offered minimal contribution to the constituency’s development.

Nana Boakye further stated that the independent candidate poses no threat to the party’s expected victory.

“The facts are there; under President Kufuor, he was appointed at the Ministry of Highways as a director. Under Nana Akufo-Addo he was appointed as a deputy minister of roads…NPP gave him the opportunity to be an MP for 12 good years”.
