Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, has suggested that he could, in the near future, join the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
According to A Plus, if he ever decides to join a party, it will be the NDC.
Speaking in an interview, Kwame A-Plus explained, “I support the NDC strongly. The kind of economy that they have turned around in a few months, I think, is worth commending, and I’m with them. They should also be with me.”
“So, it’s either we all have a smooth ride, we build a better Ghana, or we work with John Mahama together. But for now, I like the NDC. And if I ever think of joining any party, for now, it will be the NDC. If I ever decide, it will be NDC,” he reiterated.
He further added that he is looking forward to the NDC fielding a candidate to contest his seat in the 2028 general election.
“I hear people say NDC will bring their candidate to your constituency in 2028. I said that’s a very good one. I’m looking for an opportunity to give that candidate a chance around my entire constituency. If you give me one, I give you six. There are constituencies across that whole area,” he said.
Also, Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus, the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, has said he will not remain a member of parliament for long.
According to Kwame A Plus, he is prepared to step down whenever his constituents decide they no longer want him in Parliament.
In a news card shared on X by UTV Ghana, A Plus was stated to have said, “I will not remain an MP for long; I am prepared to step down whenever my constituents decide they no longer want me in Parliament”.
Some Ghanaians reacting to the A Plus remarks stated, “Survey reports suggest the possibility of you being a Methuselah in parliament to rival Ellembelle Mugabe, according to your popular youth programme you run? Or have you realised being smitten by stoked columns and pillars falling on you? Who born dog?”.
A netizen added, “We kraa we know already. If no be mp wey come fo aa nanka Kwame A+ dier mp fawoho ben”.
“Ah, to decide they no longer want you in Parliament, that would mean they will have to vote against you. If that happens, what other option do you have than to step down?”, an X user added.
In related news, A-Plus has said a serious independent candidate can beat Ghana’s two major political parties, the NPP and NDC.
According to A-Plus, Ghana’s two major political parties, the NPP and NDC, are not organised.
Speaking on Channel One TV’s The Point of View with Bernard Avle on April 8, Kwame A-Plus stated, “NPP and NDC, they are not organised. If you have serious individuals in constituencies, they will beat them”.
A-Plus also attributed his 2024 election victory to careful planning, citing that he could not go to GIMPA, study research methods, and not know what he was doing on the grounds.
He added, “After about 45 minutes of the election, I wrote on Facebook that I have won because I won’t go to GIMPA, study research methods, and not know what I am doing on the grounds. Those school fees will never go free. That is why I spent a certain number of years going to school before entering politics. I wanted to get a certain understanding of things,” he explained.
Also, an A-Plus in the same interview endorsed President John Dramani Mahama’s leadership.
The Gomoa Central MP highlighted that President Mahama’s second term would deliver results, adding that President Mahama is on track.
A-Plus added, “I believed strongly that John Mahama’s second term was going to be what it is now. So far, so very good, but it doesn’t make me NDC”.
“I am a strong supporter of John Mahama, same as Akufo-Addo,” he stated.
“There are so many people in both political parties that I like, that I think can be presidents of Ghana. But that doesn’t make me NDC. There are also people in the NPP that I think, given the opportunity, will perform,” he said.
