WE WILL BUILD KETU NORTH TOGETHER
Good Evening Chiefs and People of Ketu North. Over a year ago, I came to you as your son, brother, and friend to seek your mandate to represent you in Parliament.
I diligently sought this mandate with the conviction that there is so much more we can do together to enhance development in our beloved constituency.
Today, with a resounding voice, you have entrusted me with the mandate and made me your Member of Parliament, and you also overwhelmingly voted John Dramani Mahama. It is the honour of a lifetime.
This is truly a defining moment for all of us. With over 86% of the votes, this victory belongs to everyone who believed in our vision and worked tirelessly to make it a reality. I am deeply humbled by your trust and support, and I promise to lead with dedication, humility, and transparency.
This journey has been a collective effort, and I am immensely grateful to my team, my family, and each one of you, whose voices, prayers and aspirations have inspired me. As I thank you for this honor, I am reminded that it is also an opportunity;a call to work together to build the Ketu North we all want.
Together, we will build a future defined by progress, hope, and opportunity, leaving no one behind.
Our unity is our strength, and I will work to bridge divisions, ensuring inclusivity for all, including those who did not support me.
Let us focus on improving education, ensuring accessible healthcare, and empowering our youth to achieve their dreams. Thank you for believing in me and for this opportunity to serve.
May God bless us all, and may God bless our beloved homeland, Ghana.
Thank you.Eric Edem Agbana
MP-Elect, Ketu North
