In the aftermath of the 2024 elections, Ohene Kwame Frimpong, the newly elected Member of Parliament for Asante Akyem North, has shared thoughts about the state of Ghana’s democracy.
In a recent interview on Asempa FM, Frimpong shared his reflections on the changing nature of the country’s political landscape, pointing out that voters today are more discerning and engaged than ever before.
“No parliamentary seat is secure anymore,” Frimpong said, noting that the results of the 2024 elections clearly show that the electorate is becoming increasingly sophisticated.
He explained that Ghanaian voters are no longer easily influenced by traditional political promises, and that’s a sign of a more mature democracy.
“Ghanaian voters are now enlightened and sophisticated. Nobody can deceive any voter,” he emphasized, reflecting on how the electorate is now making more informed decisions at the polls.
Frimpong’s comments come at a time when political accountability and transparency have become crucial to voters across the country.
He highlighted that his allegiance remains firmly with the people of Asante Akyem North, where his roots and support base run deep.
“I will only accept a position from the incoming government if the people of Asante Akyem North approve it,” he said, underscoring his commitment to staying true to his constituency and respecting their wishes above all.
The newly elected MP made it clear that his responsibility lies in honoring the trust placed in him by the people.
“I will always be accountable to the people of Asante Akyem North and respect their decisions,” he declared.
His message reflects a deep sense of duty to the region, where he believes his leadership is appreciated by both members of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) and the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
“My footprints are all over the constituency, and I have earned the support of both NPP and NDC members,” he added.
