The First Deputy Speaker of Parliament, Joseph Osei-Owusu, widely known as Joe Wise, has appealed to his constituents to honour him by voting for his successor, Ralph Poku Adusei, in the upcoming parliamentary elections.
Hon. Osei Owusu explained that he had decided not to seek re-election due to his age and wanted to ensure a smooth transition.
“I have served this constituency from 2008, look at me, and I am grateful for the support you have given me, I’m now old and need to step aside for new energy.
It’s time I give the baton to a youth, someone stronger than me to support Bawumia with fresh energy and ideas, I want to ask you to support someone who is loyal, selfless, and hardworking Lawyer to lead our constituency and continue with the good works”.
The MP praised Lawyer Ralph’s dedication, hard work, and commitment to the constituency, “Ralph knows the needs of our people and has the experience and expertise to take our constituency to the next level.”
The First Deputy Speaker assured his constituents that he had confidence in Lawyer Ralph’s ability to represent their interests in Parliament.
Lawyer Ralph Poku Adusei, who was present at the launch of the District Road Improvement Programme (DRIP) in Bekwai, thanked Hon. Osei Owusu for his endorsement and promised to work tirelessly for the constituency.
“I am humbled by the incumbent Member of Parliament’s trust in me, I will not let him or our constituents down.”
“If we do not secure victory, our hardwork and all the time invested will be in vain so let us work so that we can win the elections. If not for anything, let’s look around our achievements. Many districts have hospitals now due to the agenda 111 policy. Free SHS has also benefitted a lot of Ghanaians “, he added
