Delegates of Wa West Constituency should vote for Patrick Pharuk Bandanaa

After initially hesitating due to the potential negative connotation of "blood supporting blood", I believe that a good person is a good person regardless of their familial relationship to you. Before delving into the reasons why NDC delegates in the Wa West Constituency should vote for Patrick Pharuk Bandanaa, I I want to make it clear that my support for him goes beyond our familial ties.

Patrick has helped me grow in ways that I never thought possible, and this sentiment is echoed by many young people, not just in Wa West. As the Bible admonishes, he has done a lot of good in silence.

Despite the incumbent parliamentary representation that Wa West has had for many

years, there are current concerns of false information and unidentified projects being implemented in the name of the people. However, for any NDC delegate in Wa West who is looking towards the future, there are 7 key reasons why voting for Patrick Pharuk Bandanaa (#2) is crucial.

Experience: Patrick has a wealth of experience in both public service (Foreign Affairs) and the private sector (iLink Africa - an organization that trains and empowers young aspiring agriculturists with foreign-based skills to be independent, and Africa Youth Justice an organization that champions the poor

and destitute by securing fair access to justice). With his extensive network and exposure, Patrick is well-equipped to bring much-needed development to the

These traits have guided him throughout his political career and inspire confidence and trust among those who know him. Perhaps his only weakness is that he cares too much, but this is also what makes him selfless.
