Speaking to the media and party faithful, the incumbent MP expressed confidence in retaining the seat for the NPP.
“First of all, I would like to express my gratitude to my constituents because they are all appreciative of the good work that I am doing and that I have done so far,”
“So for that reason they think and they will never allow any other person to come in now but for me to continue what I am doing.”
Following in the footsteps of her late husband, Emmanuel Kyeremanteng Agyarko, who previously represented the area, Maa Lydia has continued the legacy of public service and community development.
“As you are aware, for the first time in the history of this constituency the issue of land is scarce so putting up a new educational facility such as SHS is very difficult but by the grace of God come March we are commissioning the first SHS in this constituency.

“We have put up a hospital, we have added more schools, as for roads it is all over. There are astroturfs and more. For this reason, the constituents thought it wise for me to continue what I was doing…I will continue being their humble servant.”
