Speaking about his victory and the contributing factor in an interview with Joy News, Jinapor said his promise of promoting education and agriculture led to his victory adding that his message was not different from what the NPP government is already doing for the people of Ghana.
"The message was not different from what the NPP gave to the country neither is it different from what the government has rolled so far. This is a rural constituency, it’s a farming constituency so agriculture is a big issue here and, therefore, the commitment to complement the effort of government in helping farmers is one which I put forward firmly.
"The business of education, I was born and grew up here and I have become who I am humbly due to education so I put education before them ad so many infrastructural issues before them. But I say fundamentally, the twin issue of education and agriculture," he said.
