He said the endorsement and retainment of the MP would fruitlise his vision and agenda for the development of Wenchi to enhance the socio-economic life of the people.

And emphasised the critical and important roles being played by Prof Gyan-Baffour in his government as the Member of Parliament and Minister for Planning. The President disclosed that the Wenchi Water Supply Improvement Project, Wenchi Town/Inner City Roads, Koase SHS infrastructural projects, and many other developmental projects for the area were being championed by the MP.

The President warned the electorates against the unhealthy and infamous political electoral practice popularly called "Skirt and Blouse" where two political opponents, thus, Presidential candidate against Parliamentary candidate of another party are voted into power in the same political regime to rule.

He noted that the continuation of Prof Gyan-Baffour as MP would bring development and yield a lot of dividends for the area.

The President made the call during a sod-cutting ceremony in Wenchi for the construction of €30million Water Supply Improvement Project to end the water challenges in the area.
