“He is a man of integrity, a man of honour and that is why nobody can point accusing fingers at him”, he said.

The PPP parliamentary candidate pointed out that Ghanaians were tired of failed leadership and promises by the National Democratic Congress (NDC) and New Patriotic Party (NPP) and that they were looking for a change.

“Ghanaians are simply tired and fed up with the two major political parties with their continued failed leadership and promises and are now looking for an alternative and that is PPP”, Mr. Iddris said.

On his vision for the Obuasi West Constituency, the Parliamentary candidate said it was three-fold, namely quality education, improved sanitation and job creation.
