Speaking in an interview on an Accra based radio station he said, “The Ghanaian voter today wants development and that is why they will vote for NPP. We’re not going to win in the Volta region and that one I will be very honest with you but the votes we had in 2020, we will poll three times for Dr Bawumia on December 7”.

“There have been a lot of projects in the Volta region. Talk of the Ho town roads which now look like abroad, the GH₵14 million Ho Central ultramodern market and Hohoe enclave. Recently, South Dayi MP, Rockson Dafeamekpor attested to the development in his constituency and was convinced the people will certainly vote for NPP” he emphasized.
