Nana Okata Kwasi Asare, an aspiring candidate for the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) chair for Suhum Constituency in the Eastern Region, has shared his vision with delegates to canvass their votes, ahead of the elections.
According to him, it is his target to ensure development to improve the standard of living of people in the area.
The Aide to former USA Ambassador H.E. Dr. Adjei-Barwuah, who is unfurling his sleeves for the topmost position of the NPP party in Suhum outlined his visions in an encounter with the media.
According to him, one of the major reasons why he has decided to contest the chairmanship position was to help build an ultra-modern party office for Suhum having rented office in the past years.
He disclosed the leadership of Suhum has over the years neglected the people who have sacrificed much for the party and has therefore vowed to remember such people when voted into office.
He has therefore promised to name the conference hall of the ultra-modern office after deceased Asana who played a key role in helping the party win power under John Agyekum Kuffour.
He said, it is disheartening considering the unemployment rate in Suhum and has therefore promised to lobby when allowed to lead the constituency to get one district one factory in the area in the bid to get rid of youth unemployment.
He noted the people of Jato are into palm tapping having formed the Correct Association of Distilleries. He has therefore promised to implement a factory in the area for them to get their share of the one district one factory
However, in making sure the youth get jobs to do, he indicated both Suhum and Jato will have one district one factory under his tenure.
He added that delegates and youth of the party must have a second source of income and has hinted of training them in technical and vocational training on how to make liquid soap, hand sanitizer, carpentry, bake bread, and others.
According to him, the U-start policy initiated by the government is in line with his policy and has vowed to help the youth get jobs under his watch.
“I aim to help the youth get jobs because their state is worrying. I will plead with them to rally behind me for me to win the seat. They should make my vision become a reality and I believe I will not let them down,” he said.
