University of Bradford lecturer supports Amenfi West Constituency with a generous donation
Dr Joseph Kwadwo Danquah (Assistant Professor of Human Capital Development, Innovation, and Entrepreneurship), an academic with the University of Bradford, UK, has donated various items to the Amenfi West NPP Campaign team to support party activities ahead of the December 2024 general elections. Widely known in the Amenfi West Constituency as “Wassa Obama”, Prof. Danquah’s donation marked a significant step in the party’s quest to secure a convincing win for the presidential candidate and snatch the parliamentary seat from the NDC’s Eric Afful.
The items included party paraphernalia such as aprons, posters, banners, and party T-shirts bearing the effigy of the NPP parliamentary candidate of the Amanfi West Constituency, Ignatius Kwasi Afrifa.
Receiving the items on behalf of the Constituency campaign team, the NPP Constituency Chairman, Obed Asamoa lauded Professor Danqauh’s initiative and continued support for the party, especially at the constituency level. “The party is grateful to you, Prof, for your continued support. This demonstrates your love for Amanfi West NPP, and, indeed for the region. Coming from the UK to participate in the campaign is indicative of your resolve to see the party win massively to overtake the NDC in the forthcoming elections.
This gesture by the Professor of Human Capital Development is not the first and will not be the last. In the past, he has helped the party grassroots in social developments, supporting the education, up to the tertiary level, of brilliant but needy students of the constituency.
An enthusiastic crowd of party supporters at the short ceremony to receive the donation were full of praise for Wassa Obama who pledged to continue to offer his support to the party in order to achieve the ultimate of winning political power for the NPP. “I am convinced, looking at the developmental projects scattered across all 16 regions, that the NPP is the only political party that has the development of Ghana at heart. And so, we must all come together to help the party retain power, sustain the gains, and upgrade”, he said.
Mr. Afrifa, who represents a fresh face with new ideas going into the parliamentary elections, thanked Professor Danquah for his gesture and asked other well-meaning constituents to come on board with more logistics to facilitate the campaign. “Thank you so much, Prof. We appreciate all that you have been doing for the party. But, like Oliver Twist, we will always ask for more”.
