Member of Parliament (MP) for Abuakwa North
constituency of the Eastern Region, Gifty Twum-Ampofo says she is bent on
engaging in clean politics because she believes that will take her to
heaven.She dismisses allegations peddled against her by NDC
Parliamentary Candidate for the area, Ambassador Victor Smith, as just an
attempt to tarnish her hard earned reputation.
“I am doing politics to go
to heaven and also to praise the Lord to tell those doing dirty politics like
Victor Smith to be watchful and salute me later. I know and believe that my
politics will take me to heaven and I'm not ready to do nasty politics” she
said.
Mr Smith had described the MP as a novice in politics whose tenure
will come to an end at the December polls.
“She is a small fry (and) I’m
taking the seat from her. The people are now determined to have development
because they have never had development under the NPP,” he stated.
Mr
Smith emphasised that his constituents were wide awake and ready to vote for
change and not for party colours.
But Mrs Twum-Ampofo - who believes Mr
Smith has already lost the December polls - indicated that the NDC candidate has
no message and had resorted to offering money to people to buy their
conscience.
She pointed out that Mr Smith had served as Regional Minister
in recent times and had failed to attract or implement any meaningful
development in the area, and it is laughable that he can do better as an
MP.
Mrs Twum- Ampofo entreated the constituents to reject any offers from
the NDC and vote massively for the NPP and Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo to win
the December polls and transform the country.
