Africa-Press – Ghana. <\/strong><\/span>The Member of Parliament (MP) for Jomoro, Madam Dorcas Afo-Toffey has assured the National Democratic Congress (NDC) party and the people of Jomoro of her resolve to redouble efforts to maintain the seat in successive elections.<\/b><\/p>\n

She said grassroot participation and development played a pivotal role in clinching a resounding victory for the NDC party in the area.<\/p>\n

Madam Afo-Toffey who retained the Jomoro Parliamentary seat for a second time after 2020, was addressing party supporters, sympathisers, the clergy, Muslim community and indigenes of Jomoro during a victory thanksgiving service at the Bonyere Victory Park in the Jomoro Municipality of the Western Region.<\/p>\n

It followed her overwhelming victory in the December 07 Parliamentary elections as the Member of Parliament -Elect for Jomoro.<\/p>\n

Madam Afo-Toffey said she would work hard to make Jomoro become an NDC stronghold, adding that \u201cthe wide vote margin between 2020 and 2024 demonstrates that the people of Jomoro have accepted her as their lawmaker.\u201d<\/p>\n

Madam Afo-Toffey reiterated NDC government\u2019s intentions to empower women with the establishment of the Women\u2019s Development Bank which she had initiated and offer job opportunities to the teeming youth in her constituency.<\/p>\n

The MP also reminded President -Elect, Mr John Dramani Mahama to spearhead the affirmative action bill by appointing 30 per cent of women into responsible positions in his government.<\/p>\n

Madam Afo-Toffey expressed grave concern about the need to put the road network in Jomoro in shape especially from Samenye barrier to New Town.<\/p>\n

She asked for more prayers to continue to bring more development to the area.<\/p>\n

Mr Emmanuel Ndako Benle, the Constituency Secretary, said the Party would not rest but galvanise grassroot support to retain the seat after the former MP J.W. Acquah, who secured a third term for the NDC.<\/p>\n

He acknowledged that Jomoro had witnessed an unprecedented development during the NDC administration.<\/p>\n

Mr Ndako Benle said even in opposition, Madam Afo-Toffey had worked tirelessly to bring development to Jomoro.<\/p>\n

He said Ghanaians voted massively for change because of lack of development by the NPP government and economic hardships.<\/p>\n

Mr Ndako Benle reminded NDC appointees to learn a great lesson from the abysmal electoral defeat of the NPP and serve Ghanaians with humility in development.<\/p>\n

He advised NDC appointees to eschew arrogance, disrespect and allow the rule of law to work.<\/p>\n
