Dr Senanu Kwasi Djokoto, an aspirant for the Keta parliamentary primaries in the Volta Region, has pledged to bring development and unity to the constituency when given the opportunity. He expressed optimism about winning the primaries with an overwhelming majority.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency (GNA), Dr Djokoto highlighted the loopholes in the party that needed attention to face the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the 2024 general elections. He said the constituency lacked several developmental projects, contributing to youth unemployment in the area.
“I am highly optimistic that for what I have done and still doing for the party, I have a greater assurance from delegates to give me 90 per cent of their votes to enable me to move Keta to the next level of development,” he said.
Dr Djokoto, who is also the acting Volta Regional Director of Health, stressed the need to prioritize the people’s needs in the constituency, citing the importance of addressing issues in health, job creation, infrastructure, education, sports, and tourism, among others.
“You need to put your people first and address their needs before any other equally important issues. Keta is the big hub of the NDC, and we must make sure we keep that standard,” he said.
Dr Djokoto promised to solve the key challenges facing the constituents and urged all delegates to rally behind him, saying he would not disappoint them.
Dr Djokoto is among the six aspirants cleared after vetting to contest the Keta Parliamentary seat. The NDC has scheduled Saturday, May 13, 2023, for their presidential and parliamentary primaries across the country to elect their flagbearer and parliamentary candidates for the 2024 general elections.
