Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A-Plus, the newly elected Independent Member of Parliament for the Gomoa Central Constituency in the Central Region, has shared insights into the internal dilemma he faces over his potential alignment in Ghana’s upcoming Parliament.
In a Facebook post on Monday, January 6, 2025, A-Plus revealed that both the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC) had approached him, each presenting compelling proposals to gain his support.
A-Plus confirmed that the NPP, represented by Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, had made an official approach to him. The NPP’s offer included a promise not to contest the Gomoa Central parliamentary seat in the 2028 election.
Additionally, A-Plus mentioned that the NDC had also invited him to a meeting, scheduled for the following morning.
Though he expressed a preference for aligning with the NDC, A-Plus emphasized that his final decision would depend on which party is willing to prioritize his personal interests and those of the people of Gomoa Central.
The post said, “The NPP, led by Hon. Kennedy Agyapong, has officially approached me to discuss aligning with them in Parliament. Their proposal includes several intriguing agreements, such as a commitment that they will not contest the Gomoa Central parliamentary seat in the 2028 election.”
“The NDC, with whom I genuinely wish to align, has also invited me for a meeting tomorrow at 8 a.m. While I have friends in both the NDC and NPP, they have to understand that I will have to disappoint someone tomorrow. Let me make this simple and clear: deep down, my heart leans toward the NDC, but I will ultimately side with whoever has my interest at heart and provides the best offer for me and the people of Gomoa Central.”
