Three Nzema NPP constituencies declare support for Dr. Ben Asante

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Constituency executives of the Ellembelle, Jomoro and Evalue Ajomoro Gwira consisting of Concerned Grassroots of Nzema- Jomoro have, in separate statements, showed their appreciation and support to Dr. Ben Asante, Chief Executive Officer of the Ghana National Gas Company Limited for his competence and support towards the development of the Nzema enclaves where the operational activities of the Ghana National Gas Company is located.

In the statement, the Evalue Ajomoro Gwira NPP signed by the Constituency Chairman, Mr. Nana Effate Beyeeman said, Dr. Ben Asante has been instrumental in the development of the Nzema Districts in terms of jobs, CSR projects and as such must be supported to improve the living conditions of the people of his community in line with the agenda of President Nana Akufo-Addo to developing the Western Nzema enclaves.

“Evalue Ajomoro Gwira Constituency has had his fair share of CSR projects, recruitments, scholarships, internships and national service opportunities under the leadership of Dr. Ben Asante with support from our former MP, Hon Catherine Abelema Afeku” part of the statement reads.

Again, according to the Evalue Ajomoro Gwira NPP, Ghana Gas is now a household name in their Constituency due to the visionary leadership of Dr. Ben Asante in decentralizing opportunities for the three Nzema Districts in terms of jobs, CSR projects and recognition.

This they indicated was not the case prior to 2017.

In terms of recruitment, the Constituency said, “our Constituency can now boldly count of more than ten people recruited by Dr. Ben Asante as CEO since 2017. Not a single person from the Constituency was recruited previously.”

The statement added, “The Ghana National Gas Company, under the leadership of Dr. Ben Asante, is currently in the process of constructing an LPG Bottling Plant under the cylinder recirculation module in Evalue Ajomoro Gwira constituency. This project, when completed, will create employment opportunities for the youth of Nzema land and make a huge impact on our local economy.”

The Jomoro Constituency equally, in a statement signed by the Constituency Chairman, Mr.  Simon Amoah, stated that “we have a good relationship with the CEO of Ghana Gas and the support he has provided at his level to the party and individuals within the party has been unprecedented in the history of the party in Jomoro. We are aware that he supported each of the three parliamentary candidates and the party in the 3 Nzema areas in the 2020 elections. More specifically, until he was appointed the CEO, Jomoro could not boast of more than three employees of Ghana Gas but currently, we can boast of 13 new employees under his leadership. You can therefore imagine the number that would be employed in Ellembele, which is the immediate project-affected Constituency.”

Also, the Concerned Grassroots of Nzema – Jomoro, in their statement, stated strongly that they support the continuous stay of Dr. Ben Asante in office.

The concerned Grassroots Nzema stated that Dr. Ben Asante must be left to continue his energized, spirited and patriotic agenda of serving his nation and delivering the needed development to the people, especially, Nzemaland.
