Tru News Report has obtained footage shared by UTV featuring political commentator and former musician Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A-Plus, delivering a passionate message to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) ahead of the 2014 elections.
A-Plus has commenced his campaign in Gomoa Central, running as an independent candidate for the seat.
During his inaugural campaign, the regular panellists of UTV’s United Showbiz program addressed the constituents and reassured them that despite concerns from his supporters about his potential disqualification by the ruling NPP, such an eventuality would never occur.
A-Plus emphasized that, if anything, it is the NPP officials who would be responsible for completing his forms and submitting them on his behalf for the elections.
He firmly asserted that the people of the constituency deserve a superior leader, and he is the individual capable of embodying their hopes and aspirations.
Kwame A Plus has previously informed journalists that he will win the parliamentary election and urged potential candidates to refrain from challenging him to represent the Gomoa Central constituency in Parliament.
“Come 2024, I’m not contesting NDC or NPP. I will unseat the MP in this area. Anyone who competes with me, I will defeat the person. I am very confident that I am going to win this seat,” he said.
“It is very likely that in 2025 I will be the only independent candidate in Ghana’s parliament and that is what I want to do.
This constituency is ours, if you want to contest we are waiting for you. If you come with money, sweet talks, or anything that the person brings, I will beat him/her.
I have more influence than anyone. So whether NPP or NDC, no one should contest the seat coming 2024, they should allow me to go unopposed and go to parliament.
“I don’t even want any competition. Anyone who wants to join me can share my ambition with me and maybe if I win, I can help the person to become DCE and to be MP in this constituency in 2024, no two ways about that I am going to win the election,” Kwame A Plus said.
Meanwhile, Naana Eyiah Quansah presently serves as the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central on the ticket of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Additionally, she holds the position of Deputy Minister of Interior.
