The Ghanaian Democrat says the Komenda-Edina-Eguafo- Abrem (KEEA) branch of the National Re-organisation Committee of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has stated that it would resist with considerable force plans allegedly hatched to undermine Dr Ato Quarshie, the Member of Parliament (MP) for the constituency, by his political opponents.
It said reports reaching the committee indicate that such opponents of Dr. Quarshie are recruiting people in the area to undertake a massive demonstration against him in the shortest practicable time.
A statement issued by the secretariat of the committee at Elmina furthered that information that it gathered also indicates that the intended demonstration is meant to erode the credibility and image of Dr Quarshie, whom such opponents have falsely described as non-performing in Parliament. According to the statements, the massive infrastructural development in the constituency attests to the fact that the KEEA MP has, to a greater degree, met the expectation of the broad masses of the people during the last eight years.
"The KEEA boasts of a massive road network which no other constituency in the country can boast of and this is due to the instrumentality of Dr Quarshie, who had also assisted a number of communities to undertake self-help project to improve their lot," it said.
The statement said the KEEA has enjoyed relative peace since Dr Quarshie became an MP and, therefore, called on the people to reject any negative influence by certain personalities in the area who are bent on destabilising his activities in the constituency because he beat them in the last parliamentary elections.
