Ahead of the New Patriotic Party’s Parliamentary Primaries, a founding member of the Party Mr. James Amoah has asked delegates in the Abokobi-Madina Constituency to vote for the candidate who controls a greater percentage of the people’s goodwill.

“There is no time for experiment. This is the time to recapture what belongs to us,” he said.

Mr. Amoah, one of three party big shots contesting to be elected as the NPP’s candidate in the Constituency said the Party has come a long way to experiment with their fortunes, adding that under the present situation in the Abokobi-Madina Constituency, a convincing win will make all the difference. He said given his vast experience in politics, his support for the Party and impressive human-relation skills, winning an orphan constituency like Abokobi-Madina again for the NPP, won’t be a problem at all, adding that even the incumbent Member of Parliament Alhaji Ahmed Sorogoh would attest to how strong he is politically.

“Even Sorogho whom I contested with in 2004 would attest to my stature and what I can do. He must be terrified now that I have openly declared I am running again,” he said.

Mr. James Amoah came close to winning the Abokobi-Madina seat for the NPP in 2004 in a closely contested election which saw the NDC MP won under very weird circumstances.

A sampling of views by this newspaper from a cross section of the political divide in the Constituency, painted a very promising picture for the aspiring NPP MP.

“He is our man for the 2012 elections. We’ve all made up our minds, there is no turning back. Abokobi-Madina deserves better and I believe Mr. James Amoah stands tall,” a trader in the area told this newspaper.

The New Patriotic Party has fixed April 30th as the day for voting in Parliamentary Primaries.

“I am winning hands down. This is a deal signed, sealed and I am going to deliver it to the NPP. We’ve done a lot of work and can say that the people are with us. The good people of Abokobi-Madina have tasted eight years of Sorogho and want a change. That change they believe will come from me,” he said.
