Having been widely criticised for his irresponsible actions, Mr. Ahenkorah tendered in his resignation in July.
Addressing some party supporters in the Tema West constituency, Akufo-Addo said Mr. Ahenkorah showed that he was a principled person by resigning.
Outdooring him as the NPP’s parliamentary candidate for the constituency, the President described him as a man of his words.
“It shows that he is a man of his words and a man you can work with,” Akufo-Addo said, as quoted by 3news.
“Let us all vote for him on December 7 to retain the seat and also vote for me, four more years for Nana.”
