The Member of Parliament for Awutu Senya East, Mavis Hawa Koomson, who is also contesting in this year’s elections has assigned herself as a party agent in the ongoing special voting event.
The MP who arrived early before the EC officially commenced the process had her name tag indicating that she was a party agent for the New Patriotic Party (NPP).
She told OnuaOnline.com that even though this marks the fourth consecutive time she’s contesting for the seat, she doesn’t want to regard it as normal and wants to be part of all the processes.
“I am a party agent today. I want to be part of the entire process. I don’t want to take chances at all” she told OnuaOnline.
Hawa Koomson showed up in 2012 after successfully winning the NPP’s internal elections and proceeded to defeat the NDC’s Nuhu Adams who was the then MCE for the Awutu Senya East area.
She defeated him again in the 2016 elections with a votes margin of over 11,000.
There was however a sharp decline of the votes as the NDC’s candidate, Phillis Naa Koryoo Okunnor managed to reduce the margin to 5,000 in the last elections.
