Isaac Ashai Odamtten, the National Democratic Congress (NDC) Member of Parliament (MP) for the Tema East Constituency, has filed his nomination at the Party Office at Tema Community One for re-election in May 2023.
The MP, who was accompanied by a team of supporters to submit his forms, charged party functionaries and all contestants for both the Parliamentary and Presidential across the country, to unite and organise a campaign based on facts and not antagonism.
Mr Odamtten said Ghana would be entering into an unprecedented General Election in 2024 and urged the NDC not to take things for granted, but work together for the party and for Ghanaians.
“Across the country, many are calling for the return of the NDC into government, the power to win Election 2024 is before us, if we work for the common interest of Ghana, we will succeed, for this is not the time to seek for personal interest,” he said.
Speaking to the Ghana News Agency in an interview in Tema after the filing, Mr. Odamtten who served as a former Tema Metropolitan Chief Executive, explained that the Election 2024 had already started attracting various campaign strategies “unknown in our democratic dispensation.”
He however, expressed confidence in getting re-elected to continue the work started through the Tema Metropolitan Assembly, and in Parliament which had impacted the lives of his Constituents, specifically in the area of education, security, health, and infrastructure among others.
