…Heads to Awutu Senya West with 95% confidence
Eugene Kofi Bentum Arhin, the Director of Communications at the Presidency, has literally started making plans for his political career after the Akufo-Addo administration by filing his nomination to contest the Awutu Senya West Constituency parliamentary seat.
He is confident of winning the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) primary by a large margin and believes he stands out among the other candidates.
Mr Arhin, was the second person to file his nomination for the upcoming parliamentary primaries in the constituency.
George Nenyi Kojo Andah, the former Member of Parliament (MP) for the Awutu Senya West in the Central Region, whom many had expected to join the race, appears not interested in the contest.
He was beaten in his attempt to retain the seat by Gizella Akushika Tetteh-Agbotui, an architect and sister of Hanna Tetteh, who was beaten by George Nenyi Kojo Andah in December 2016.
Eugene Arhin, as an indigene of Awutu Senya West, has been active in the Constituency for many years, even while working at the Presidency.
He is confident of beating Amos Opei Okai, the other candidate who filed earlier, and is expecting a victory by a margin of at least 95percent.
After submitting his nomination form, Arhin, described himself as a man with strong capabilities, who is poised to win back the Awutu Senya West parliamentary seat after the NPP’s defeat in 2020.
He is counting on the developmental works he lobbied for the Constituency to convince voters to ensure the NPP’s victory in the upcoming elections.
He is, therefore calling on supporters of his contender to run a clean campaign devoid of divisive messages to ensure that the party surges to the 2024 elections with a united front.
