NPP only needs Unity to win Election 2024 and break the 8 – Okyere Baafi

The incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament (MP) for New Juaben South in the Eastern Region, Michael Okyere Baafi, has said all the party needed was unity to win this year’s general elections.

That, he indicated, would fulfil the party’s mantra of breaking the eight.

Mr Baafi made the remarks last Saturday after he was acclaimed the NPP parliamentary candidate for the 2024 general elections at party’s constituency delegates’ conference to affirm his candidature at the newly-constructed astro turf soccer pitch in Koforidua, the regional capital.

He was endorsed by all the 1,012 delegates present at the venue.

That followed the disqualification of Nana Yaa Ansah by the party’s vetting committee.

Mr Baafi, who is also a Deputy Minister of Trade and Industry, said he would do everything possible to bring all aggrieved party members in the constituency together to enable them work together to win the December 7 general elections.

“With unity, we can easily break the eight together,” he stated.

Mr.Baafi assured party members that his outfit would not work in isolation as such needed all and sundry to join him in the campaign to retain the parliamentary seat, as well as the presidency.

“There is no need for any of you delegates to be in any camp with the party at the constituency level because we all form one big family”, Mr Baafi indicated.

The MP stated that the development of the constituency was his topmost priority and that he had improved the socio-economic conditions of the people in the area of education, health, scholarship, jobs, roads construction and boreholes, among others.
