The National Democratic Congress (NDC) Communications Officer for Abuakwa South Constituency. Aikins Ofori has expressed his displeasure about the performance and availability of the Member of Parliament for Abuakwa South Constituency lawyer, Hon. Samuel Atta – Akyea,
According to him, the situation is very alarming since his representation is not felt by the people in terms of development or the fulfillment of his constitioanal mandate of engaging the people,
The constituents can not found their MP to speak to and are worried about their MP’s missing in action attitude in the constituency ever since he was voted into power.
According to him, the Constituency has been facing numerous developmental challenges due to his absence and therefore calling on the Electoral Commission (EC) as a matter of urgency to organize bye- elections if the law permits that for development.
He added that, some Residents, and concerned Assembly members in the constituency bemoans that, the MP after the general elections has not been found, thus no visitation, he has no special office within the constituency to lodge their complains, he can only be found on general elections day.
There has never been a Single project he has cut – sod, commissioned or inaugurated ever since he became an MP, this has cause several economic – hardships and residents are living – hardly beyond their astronomical limits in some Communities like, Addokwanta, Ntabea, Abesim Yeboah, Bomponso no. 1&2, Kwasi-Komfo, Okanta, Aposs, Apedwa, Odumase, Akooko, Agyapomaa, Kyebi, Adukrom e.t.c.
The MP is the cousin to the President whose term of office as MP brought no development to the people as experienced now,describes as a tradition of no development.
Aikins Ofori further said, it’s time the MP is compel to engage the people to advance the development of the area or we use all legal and political means for a by-election than to continue with no development and absentee MP.
He therefore calls on the leadership of Parliamentary to call him to order.
