NPP approves 2nd Deputy Speaker as Fomena parliamentary candidate

Andrew Amoako Asiamah, the Second Deputy speaker of parliament, has received the support of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) as their 2024 parliamentary candidate for Fomena.

The NPP Ashanti Regional Chairman, Bernard Antwi Boasiako, also known as Chairman Wontumi, announced the NEC’s decision to the Constituency’s leadership on Thursday.

He said the party is blown away by the level of support it has received from the 2nd Deputy Speaker of Parliament, who serves as the independent member of parliament for Fomena at the moment.

The party, according to Chairman Wontumi, is quite certain that it would revert to the NPP when he runs for the Fomena seat.

He said such a show of love, support and dedication from Asiamah should not go unnoticed, expressing the party’s gratitude to him for saving its image in Parliament.

In response, the Second Deputy Speaker stated that he had missed every aspect of the party that he would always hold dear.

In the Fomena constituency, Asiamah promised he was prepared to lead the party to a historic landslide electoral win for both himself and Dr. Bawumia.
