 According to them, for the look of the truck records in the area of projects and programs developed under the current MCE, he deserves to be re-appointed the second term by the President.

 "Our MCE has performed well in the areas of sports development, education, health, youth employment, security, water provision and has improved upon sanitation in the municipal.

 They further stated that the current MCE has been supportive to the entire youth of the municipality narrating that “he is not discriminatory; he embraces every youth who seek his assistance.”

They added declared that their support for Mr. Amoah is not borne out of anything but the true assessment of his work as MCE.
