Presidential Candidate of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Dr Mahamudu Bawumia has promised to give Effiduase-Asokore a municipal status within 100 days of his election.
He gave this assurance while addressing the chiefs and people during his tour of the constituency.
Dr. Bawumia urged constituents to vote for him as he will be more accountable than his contender John Mahama.
“Mahama has been president before so when he comes, he will only be president for four years. He will not come back here to Effiduase-Asokore to account for his work. For me, once you vote for me I can be president for 8 years hence I will have to come back here after 4 years to account for my work.
His Majesty has stated some of the things you need in this community. Leave your roads to me, I will do it for you. When I become president, within the first 100 days, Ayew and I will give you your municipality status.
“It will be one of the things I will do for you”, he stated.
Meanwhile, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia made a similar pledge to elevate Kumawu to municipality status in response to a petition from local chiefs.
During a constituency tour on Sunday, November 17, Dr. Bawumia outlined plans for significant development projects in the area, including the establishment of a nursing training college.
He emphasized that these initiatives are aimed at fostering growth and creating opportunities for the people of Kumawu.
“I can contest again if I win the elections but the same cannot be said for John Dramani Mahama. We plan to build a nursing training college in the Kumawu constituency, fix your roads and upgrade Kumawu to a municipality.
“I will account for all these promises when I return to campaign for re-election.”
