The Ga Mantse, Nii Tackie Teiko Tsuru II, has assured NPP presidential hopeful, Alan Kyerematen, of his continuous prayers in support of his candidature as flagbearer of the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
“I Pray that you win the contest to become the NPP Flagbearer for the 2024 elections,” the Ga Mantse told the former Trade and Industry Minister, when he led a 21-man delegation to pay a courtesy call on him (Ga Mantse) at his palace at Kaneshie, Accra, on Monday.
The delegation, which comprised of Mr Ayikoi Ottoo, former Attorney-General and Ghana’s High Commissioner to Canada as Spokesperson, called on the Ga Mantse to congratulate him over his successful installation.
It was also to empathise with the Ga Mantse on the passing on to glory of the Queen Mother of the Ga State, Naa Dedei Omaedru III.
The delegation assured the Chiefs and people of the Ga State of Alan Kyerematen’s support during the impending funeral of the late Queen Mother.
The team used the occasion to formally inform the Ga Mantse and the Ga Traditional Council of Mr Kyerematen’s decision to contest as Presidential candidate of NPP when the Party opens nominations for the flagbearership contest later in the year.
Members of the delegation include sitting and former members of parliament; Sly Tetteh, Carlos Ahenkora, Dr. Adomako Kissi, Kwaku Agyenim Boateng and Bright Baligi.
Others are; Bonface Saddique, Dr. Alhassan Samari, Yaw Buaben Asamoah, Nana Ohene Ntow, Mr. Stephen Kyerematen, Catherine Afeku, Gifty Klenam, Dr. Samiu Nkrumah, Mr. Kofi Kapito and Mr. Philip London.
The rest are; Okerchiri Adusah, Mr. Richard Nyamaa, Rev. Charles Owusu and Ridwan Abbass.
The Ga Mantse hoped an Alan Kyerematen government would promote an agenda that would be beneficial to the whole of country and ensure greater national inclusiveness.
Nii Tackie Tsuru II, the Ga Mantse, who is also President of the Ga Traditional Council and known in private life as Dr Kelvin Nii Tackie Abia Tackie, was inducted on Saturday May 9, 2020 as the legitimate occupant of the presidency of the Ga Traditional Council.
