“THANK YOU FOR VOTING FOR OUR PREFERRED ASPIRANT” – ASHANTI REGION ELECTORAL AREA COORDINATORS TO MPs AND CHAIRMEN

We the Association of Electoral Area Coordinators in the Ashanti Region are expressing our heartfelt gratitude to the Members of Parliament and Constituency Chairmen of the Ashanti Region for voting massively for the Vice President, HE Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, in yesterday’s Super Delegates Conference just as we humbly appealed to them.

The outcome of the Special Delegates Conference is the exact reflection of the situation on the ground.

The choice of HE Dr. Bawumia is the choice of the grassroots and polling station executives, and for that matter, as Members of Parliament and Constituency Chairmen representing these members of the party, you did exactly the right thing by voting for the Vice President accordingly.

As the mouthpiece of the grassroots and polling station executives in the party, we feel honoured and proud by the mere fact that you granted their wish. It was indeed obvious in the reception given to the Vice President when he visited the region during the campaign tour.

Your public declarations of your support for him were not mere political gimmicks and rhetoric. You have really proven to all that you are honourable, respectable and noble men who need to be held in high esteem at all times.

As we indicated and pledged in our previous statement and mantra “you do us, we do you”, we will return the favour in the next parliamentary primaries and constituency elections. We are once again grateful to you all.
