The National Communications Officer of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), Mr
Sammy Gyamfi, has called on electorates in the Mfantseman Constituency in the Central
Region to vote out their Member of Parliament, Madam Ophelia Hayford, for non-
performance in the upcoming December general elections.
He made the call during separate community engagements at Abandze and Kromantse, two
fishing communities in the Mfantseman Constituency, as part of his campaign tour of the
Central Region with the Minority Leader, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson.
Mr. Gyamfi took on the Mfantseman Member of Parliament, describing her as a “non-
performing MP” who merely adds up to the numbers in the august House of Parliament
without any meaningful impact on the floor of Parliament.
Extolling the qualities of the NDC’s parliamentary candidate for Mfantseman Constituency in
the upcoming elections, Dr. Prince Kojo Arhin, the National Communications Officer of the
NDC said his party’s parliamnetary candidate is an accomplished, dynamic and affable
person with a distinguished career in Human Resource management.
“Dr Prince Arhin will bring decent and quality representation to the people of Mfantseman
Constituency”, Mr Gyamfi added.
He said the Mfantseman constituency currently lacks meaningful representation as the
incumbent member of Parliament, Madam Ophelia Hayford, has earned for herself the
unenviable title of a “yea yea MP” in Parliament with no advocacy skills to effectively
represent the people.
This, Mr Gyamfi, noted was hampering development in the area. He therefore urged
electorates in the area to vote for the NDC’s parliamentary candidate, Dr. Prince Arhin to
give the area better representation in Parliament.
Responding to an appeal from the chief of Kromantse to complete a stalled community
centre project, the NDC delegation donated GHS10,000 on behalf of the party’s presidential
candidate, Mr. John Dramani Mahama.
