A parliamentary hopeful of the New Patriotic Party in the Bolgatanga East Constituency Mathew Silas Amoah has been advised by Dr Dominic Akuritinga Ayine to spend wisely in his bid to be elected Member of Parliament.
The New Patriotic Party in the constituency has widely endorsed the candidature of the businessman ahead of the parliamentary primaries of the governing party.
Mathew Amoah has been hailed by the rank and file of the NPP in the Bolgatanga East Constituency over his substantial support to the party financially and in other areas.
At a unity walk organised at his behest in collaboration with the executives of the party in the constituency, speaker after speaker commended Mr Amoah for his show of capacity and competence to lead the NPP as its parliamentary candidate for the 2024 elections.
It will be recalled that Constituency Communications Officer of the party served notice to persons who are not financially in good standing to stay away from contesting the primaries, because they would not be entertained.
However, incumbent Member of Parliament for the area Dr Dominic Akuritinga Ayine who is seeking to be elected for the fourth term has retorted he is unperturbed by the opposition of the New Patriotic Party and its presumptive parliamentary candidate.
According to Dr Ayine, he does not know the source of finances of Mathew Amoah except to advise him to be conscious in his expenditure to realise his dreams of being an MP.
“Tell Amoah Mathew my good junior brother that wherever he has gotten his money from, he should spend it wisely because am going to retain the seat,” Dr Ayine told journalists shortly after filing his nomination forms at the party office in Zuarungu.
The former Deputy Attorney General dismissed assertions that the NPP is gaining grounds in the constituency adding that “I may have sleepless nights about a lot of issues, I don’t lose sleep over the NPP. Not at all and not in this constituency. All the things they [NPP] are doing, have you heard me respond to them? It is not because I don’t see what they are doing”.
