The Greater Accra regional leadership of the ruling New Patriotic Party has defended its decision to support the former National Democratic Congress (NDC) deputy’s candidacy for Ningo Prampram, ET Mensah.
The NPP led by its Greater Accra regional chairman, Divine Otto campaigned vigorously for ET Mensah ahead of the contest in which he obtained 100 percent of the votes cast.
ET Mensah beat the competition of four other candidates.
Speaking to Citi News, Divine Otto said the party supported ET Mensah because he was the best candidate to represent the region.
“In terms of experience, he is a very rich person who can be counted on. He’s someone who can play the political ball with the NDC and the NPP, so we think he’s achieved declaration status, so giving him that honor will be in the best interests of the region.
The other competitors were Nii Kotei Dzani; who is the outgoing member, Michael Kofi Mensah, Wilbeck Ato Sefah, John Mantse Akwetey, Nene Konor Atiapah III and Charles Andrew Parker-Allotey.
