Prior to the elections, he had made it known in an interview that he was the best option the party needed to defeat three-time MP for the area, Patrick Yaw Boamah.

”There are certain things that make me a refreshingly different candidate. I resonate with the four voting blocs in the constituency, particularly for the NDC.
