He said Mr.
Quayson is likely to be implicated by the law for perjury hence voting for him
will be a waste of time.
His statement
came as part of his campaign efforts to rally support for the New Patriotic
Party (NPP) candidate in the Assin North by-election scheduled for Tuesday,
June 27.

“It is crucial
for us to exercise our voting rights responsibly,” the President stated firmly.
“We should not support or vote for individuals who are entangled in legal
controversies that may eventually lead them to face imprisonment. <<<<
“We need someone who can come and help you. Someone who will work in your interest. I heard Gyakye Quayson say that even in prison, you people will vote for him, can he work from jail? We vote for people to go to Parliament to work, how can he work from prison so don’t vote for someone who will end up in jail, vote for someone who can work to improve your lives.”

The constituency
has been grappling with political uncertainty due to the legal challenges faced
by its former Member of Parliament, James Gyakye-Quayson.
He urged them to
carefully evaluate the candidates’ backgrounds, qualifications, and reputations
before casting their votes in the upcoming by-election.
President
Akufo-Addo also dismissed claims that he was influencing the court against Mr
Quayson.
The Electoral
Commission scheduled a by-election in Assin North following the nullification
of the 2020 parliamentary election in the area, which was won by Mr. Quayson.
