Dr Freda Akosua Oheneafrewo Prempeh, the Member of Parliament for Tano North Constituency in the Ahafo Region, has filed her nomination forms to seek re-election in the January NPP primaries.
It is the fourth bid to get the mandate of the Constituents to represent them as the Member of Parliament since 2013.
Constituency Secretary, Stephen Ntiamoah Takyi, received the forms duly filled at the constituency office in the presence of the constituency chairman, Mr. Karikari Apau.
The MP, who is the Minister for Sanitation, has endeared herself to the constituents by the numerous social interventions she had provided for the people.
These include the construction of a proposed Fire Academy Training school, two Astro turfs at Duayaw Nkwanta and road construction, as well as about 130 boreholes and water projects spread across the 25 Electoral areas in the Tano North constituency.
She thanked the Polling Station executives who mobilised resources to secure the nomination forms on her behalf.
The Sanitation Minister said she trusts delegates and the youth would support her bid to help Dr. Bawumia break the 8 for the NPP in the 2024 elections.
The former Deputy Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection has since launched her campaign for the bid.
Mrs. Freda Prempeh polled 22,592 votes (54.18%) in the 2020 elections against 18,684 (44.81%) and 419 (1%) votes by the NDC and GUM candidates.
She told constituents at the launch yesterday that she would continue to touch base and seek their interest.
Nana Yaw Godfred, a Polling Station chairman of Buokurukruwa electoral area, on behalf of polling station executives, said the former Deputy Minister of Gender, Children and Social Protection would surely be given the nod at the primary, based on her commitment to improve the lot of the people, as evident in various developmental projects she has provided for the constituents.
About 693 delegates would decide her fate in the primary against Dr. Gideon Boako of the office of the Vice President, before she seeks the mandate of the over 54,973 voters in the constituency, in the general elections in December 2024.
