Attoh is Trubo/Amasaman NPP Parliamentary Candidate

Amasaman (G/A), Aug. 18, GNA - Mr Samuel Nii Aryeetey Attoh, Ga District Chief Executive, has been elected unopposed as the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate for the newly created Trubo/Amasaman Constituency in the Greater Accra Region.

Declaring the results, Mr Prosper Dudi, District Electoral Officer, said Mr Attoh's contestant, Mr Seth Ankrah, a Plant Engineer, was disqualified during vetting because he registered as a member of the Party this year.

Addressing the gathering, Mr Lord Commey, National Organiser of the NPP, called on members and supporters of the Party to live up to expectation by intensifying their campaigns in the communities to win more supporters.

Mr Attoh in his acceptance speech called on Ghanaians to vote massively for President John Agyekum Kufuor to enable him to complete the numerous developmental projects his government had started.
