The Concerned Youth of Upper Denkyira West of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) last Sunday picked nomination forms for Mr. Daniel Appianim to contest the parliamentary primary at Diaso, the district capital.
Upper Denkyira West is one of the orphan constituencies of the NPP.
Mr. Jonathan Nkrumah, leader of the Concerned Youth of Upper Denkyira West, explained that their position stemmed from the selfless services of Mr. Appianin, who was concerned about the welfare of the constituents.
Mr. Appianin is a staunch member of the NPP and seen as a grassroots person who is capable of annexing the seat from the National Democratic Congress (NDC). Mr. Appianin is an astute public servant with over 20 years of working experience.
He worked in the Ghana Education Service as a tutor of Economics and Business Management in various Senior High schools in the country, and rose through the ranks to the position of Assistant Director 1.
He holds a Masters Degree in Port and Shipping Administration and a Bachelor of Education, Social Sciences (B.Ed. Social Sciences).
Mr. Joseph Quansah, Chairman of the NPP Elections Committee, cautioned aspirants to embark on decent campaigns, devoid of insults, because the party was one family.
Receiving the forms, Mr. Appianin promised to work together with the delegates for the benefit of Upper Denkyira West.
He expressed gratitude to the youth for their support, and reminded them of the existing rules and regulations guiding elections.
