Mr Kwaku Asante-Boateng, the Member of Parliament (MP) for Asante-Akim South, says he is seeking a fourth term to complete numerous projects he initiated but, yet to be completed. 'I have an unfinished business with this constituency having initiated several projects and I am determined to complete them for the benefit of the people in my next term,' he told the media after filing his nomination for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary primaries. Amidst brass band music, the Deputy Minister for Railway Development filed his nomination to contest the seat with Mr Bice Osei Kuffour, Managing Director of Ghana Post Company, and Mr Eric Amofa, a businessman. The MP said he wanted to leave a memorable legacy which he could be remembered for many years after he left office, hence his decision to seek a fourth term in office. According to him, there were a lot of projects currently ongoing in the constituency which could not be completed due to financial constraints mostly from the central government, an d it was his desire to see them through as the initiator. He mentioned roads of communities such as Kyempo, Dwendwenase and Kwakru which he said were at various stages of completion. 'I want to ensure these projects as well as others in the education and health sectors are successfully completed before I will be fulfilled as MP for the people of Asante-Akim South,' he noted. He was of the firm conviction that the lobbying skills he had acquired over the years as MP could bring more development to the constituency and stressed the need for continuity in the best interest of the people. Mr Asante-Boateng argued that staying long in parliament did not only inure to the benefit of constituents but also enhanced parliamentary work because it took time for new entrants to learn the rudiments of parliamentary duties. He urged the delegates to choose experience over experiment in the overall interest of national development. Another motivation driving his quest to continue serving the people, he said, was the n umerous calls from the constituents for him contest to build on the good work he had done so far. He used the occasion to wish all the constituents Merry Christmas and charged them to use the festive season to show compassion towards the poor and needy in society. Source: Ghana News Agency
