He said that Agona West NDC has no strategy and plan of action to snatch the seat NPP won in the 2000 parliamentary election, adding that NDC was having everything at its disposal in the year 2000 but could not maintain the seat.

He said although, Agona West NPP had its problems that would not let them loose the seat.

Alhaji Abass said NPP has done a lot for the constituency so he was sure that the electorates would return it to power. He called on the Agona West NPP executives and supporters to bury their differences and intensify the electioneering campaign.
