According to him, the call to contest the Ellembele seat by a large margin of the youth both within and outside the CPP was due to the disappointment they have in the incumbent legislator Mr. Emmanuel Armah Kofi-Buah’s failure to fulfil his campaign promises he made during the 2008.

He also said he will lead the industrialization of Nzemaland, this would be characterized by the local manufacturing sector such as the vulcanizing, welding as well as construction which he promised to make it more marketable.

“These initiatives shall be executed dispassionately even if I don’t win the seat; since the youth of Ellembele needs a lot of skill training to enable them become independent”. Touching on the agriculture sector, highlighted that he will use his experience to lobby and encourage investors to set up agro processing industries in the area to take care of the raw materials such as the cocoa, coconut, oil palm as well as other cash crop. He blamed the government for its inability to streamline measures to control the indiscriminate use of the natural resources in the area by some expatriates.
