Shame On You All:You Want Me Dead Untimely For ‘By-election Development’ – NPP MP Fires

The Member of Parliament (MP) for Manso-Nkwanta in the Ashanti Region, George Kwabena Takyi, has described as unfortunate claims by his constituents for him to die to ensure development in the area.

Responding to questions by his constituents on GhanaAkoma morning show with Aduanaba Kofi Asante Ennin on Akoma FM in Kumasi, on lack of development in the area, the MP was not happy that some people in his constituency want him to die to pave way for by-election, which to them will see massive development in the area.

In recent times, many people have prayed for their MP to die to ensure development in their area.

They make mention of the level of quick developments in constituencies where there would be by-elections.

Calling in to the show, some of the constituents in Manso-Nkwanta prayed for their MP to die in order to merit development.

They suggested that members residing in constituencies with New Patriotic Party (NPP) MPs should pray for their deaths.

They argued that such unfortunate events would allegedly pave the way for much-needed development projects in their respective communities.

Citing the recent by-elections in Kumawu and Assin North as an example, they claimed that the NPP in their bid to secure votes for their party’s candidates, initiated road construction and development projects following the passing of Philip Atta Basoah and the deposition of James Gyakye Quayson respectively.

In the phone-in contributions on Mepotem segment on the show, Kumawu callers contended that had the MP not passed away, the constituency would have been neglected in terms of infrastructural development.
