Don’t allow politics to divide us - Lawyer Sosu

Francis Xavier Sosu, Member of Parliament, Madina Constituency has urged the assembly members of the constituency to put aside their political colours and work as a team for the development of the constituency.

He said when it comes to development it knows no political colours thus dividing ourselves in political lines would be difficult to work together for the urgently needed development.

He made this statement at a programme organised by Municipal Assembly to introduce the newly elected Member of Parliament to the assembly members.

Mr Sosu who is a human rights lawyer said he believed his role was cut in the national scheme and had a part to provide oversight over the works of the executives.

He said, he would work with every member of the assembly and leaders of various communities to ensure that the constituency enjoyed holistic development.

“I have committed myself to be a servant leader of the people of Madina and I intend to keep that promise,” he said.

He said there were number of challenges in the community such as sanitation, lack of drainage and access to roads that need to be addressed in the constituency and could only be achieved with consented effort, togetherness and unity of purpose.

He reiterated that his duty as the MP could only be successful with the support of each and every member of the assembly.

Mr Sosu said with the support of the assembly, “we would be able to lobby at the central government level to get the developmental goals achieved”.

He promised not to play partisanship politics, “election is over, now we must all work together to ensure that our leaders provide us with the needed support and development, that is what I stand for”.

Mr Sosu pledged to uphold to his vows to the good people of the country by living up to expectation without political coloration when it comes to development of the constituency.

He encouraged the assembly that regardless of their political affiliation, they should put it aside and work as a term.
