The incumbent Member of Parliament of Fomena constituency on the ticket of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Ashanti Region, Hon. Andrew Amoako has resigned from contesting the New Patriotic Party parliamentary primaries come April 25, 2020.
Hon. Andrew Amoako was contesting Mr. Philip Owusu Asante ahead of the primaries.
In a letter announcing his decision, the legal practitioner said: “After a broader consultation with some Chiefs and other vibrant politicians who I’ve taken as my political advisers, I’ve decided with my team to withdraw from the parliamentary primaries of the New Patriotic Party”.
He also said he has been subjected to a series of unfair treatment from the regional chairman of the party and even from the national level.
According to him, the NPP regional chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako popularly known as Chairman Wontumi is backing a candidate against him and making it difficult for fair competition to take place.
