Some traders at racecourse market have asked the governing New Patriotic Party (NPP) to settle on the Chief of Staff, Madam Akosua Frema Opare as the running mate.
The traders claim she has demonstrated beyond imagination that she is more than qualified to partner with Dr. Bawumia.
The traders made the remarks in their expression of gratitude for a gesture by the Chief of Staff.
Traders, who lost millions of cedis due to a market fire outbreak, were thrilled with the Chief of Staff’s support.
The Chief of Staff has donated some construction items to help in the reconstruction of where the fire was destroyed in the market, bringing back joy to the faces of the traders.
Madam Afia Kyeiwaa, Queen Mother of Racecourse Market, expressed gratitude to Hon. Akosua Frema Opare for rekindling hope among traders who were lost in hope due to the fire outbreak.
She noted that if the Chief of Staff could do this for them, then she would be able to do more if she became Vice President.
Madam Afia Kyeiwaa continues that the Chief of Staff has exhibited a sign of patriotism, and everything shows clearly that when given the mandate to lead, she can deliver to the expectations of the people.
“It would be prudent for the NPP to choose a woman as their running mate, just like the NDC, as women also have the capabilities and knowledge when it comes to governance. As traders, we also understand the dynamics of what is going on, and we want to appeal to the NPP to settle on Madam Frema Opare.
She has done a lot for us. The market used to be in a terrible state. When it rains, we are unable to trade because of the muddy nature of the market.
The Chief of Staff has done a lot for us. We are grateful to her for her kindness. When I heard that the NDC had settled on a woman as their running mate, I was excited. This is positive because, as women, we also have what it takes to manage this country. We are not only competent, but skilled, knowledgeable, and better managers. So the NPP should settle on a woman for us.”
