Mr Rex Daniel Wussah, a National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary aspirant for Ada, has called on the electorate to vote for him for the constituency to enjoy more progress.

He said he has track record as a former District Chief Executive who initiated the 200-million- dollar Ada Sea Defense Project and also lobbied for the asphalting of some roads in the area.

Mr Wussah made the call after he filed his nomination papers to contest the NDC primary at the party’s constituency office at Kesseh, near Ada in the Greater Accra Region on Thursday.

He is in the parliamentary race with Madam Comfort Doyoe Cudjoe Ghansah, the incumbent Member of Parliament (MP), Mr Thomas Brown Boye-Doe Tetteh and Mr Charles Maccarthy.

Mr Wussah said projects he initiated should have been major priorities for his successors to continue, but they have abandoned them making the youth in the constituency jobless.

“This has brought untold hardships to many families, but I am coming back as a person who has gone through the rank and file of the NDC party and it is now time for me to become MP to bring solace to the people, especially the youth in the constituency,” he said.

He said: “Initially I decided not to run for the race but the youth did not allow me to sleep hence my heed to their call.”

He said when given the nod as the parliamentary candidate for the area he would use the opportunity to unite the factions in the constituency to fight a common goal of protecting and retaining the seat for the NDC.

“God has ordained me Rex Daniel Wussah to become the parliamentary candidate for the area comes November 7, 2015. I don’t fear any of my contestants, only God that I fear,” he said.

Mr Wussah urged the people to stay as one family and put their shoulders to the wheel for the total development of the Ada State.

He posthumously commended Professor John Atta Mills for appointing him as the former District Chief Executive.
