"Am happy that four out of the five aspirants who contested with the nominee are here. This shows political maturity. It has given me hope that Mr. Solomon Darko Quarm will perform in his tenure of office

I have said on many occasions that Nananom are there to ensure development, so we would do all it takes to support the Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo-led NPP government to succeed.

The Gomoa Akyempim Traditional Council has installed a Chief for all the Muslim Communities to work hand in hand with the Ministry for Inner Cities and Zongo Development.

This is meant to supplement the Assembly's development agenda.

This shows our total commitment towards the successful implementation of government's programmes and Policies in Gomoa Akyempim in particular and Ghana as a whole,"

" Poverty is having a torn in the flesh of our people, with unity and hard work we will overcome these economic woes"

Similarly, the Omanhene of Gomoa Ajumako Traditional Area who is also the President of the Central Regional House of Chiefs, Obrempong Nyanful Krampah XI assured the nominee of his full support.

"I want to encourage the nominee to work in humility to merit the confidence reposed in him by His Excellency Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo Addo for better results."

Work extra hard in consultation with your party executives, your Member of Parliament and Nananom especially to better the lives of the people in Gomoa East.

If government appointees perform, I have high hopes that the NPP government would be in power for more long years in order for Ghana to regain its lost glory"

Speaking to the Communications Director for Gomoa East NPP, Mr. Joshua Nah, he was very optimistic that DCE nominee, Mr. Solomon Darko Quarm, will be given 100% endorsement adding that the nominee was deeply rooted to the grassroots of the NPP, especially in the Gomoa East constituency.

" These personalities contested with the nominee but lost but are still posed to work hand in hand with the nominee. This gives me hope that there is brighter future for Gomoa East

We are going to work together in unity to bring the needed development to the people.

The creation of the District and subsequent nomination of DCE is a good omen for improvement of lives in Gomoa East. As a Member of Parliament, I will pull all resources within my means to ensure the District progresses in development "
