The NDC will retire Patrick Boamah, the member of parliament (MP) for Okaikoi Central Constituency, according to Samuel George Nartey, MP for Ningo-Prampram.

He gave the assurance while speaking at the NDC Okaikoi Central Parliamentary Candidate and entertainment and media entrepreneur Abdulai Abu Sadiq's campaign kickoff.

Sam George claims he was forced to declare his candidacy in the Okaikoi Central parliamentary contest this year because it was time for current MP Patrick Boamah to step down.

“I have lived in this constituency for seven years and last year I gave my blessings to both parliamentary aspirants. But this year, because I have absolute confidence that Baba Sadiq is the man to take this constituency to the next level, I am taking sides” he said.

Sam George also bemoaned the constant “Skirt and Blouse” outcome of results in the constituency, attributing it to disunity in the Party.

“In Okaikoi Central, NDC always wins the Presidential polls but keeps loosing when it comes to the Parliamentary. This is because there is disunity and backbiting in the party,” he added.

“Today, must mark the beginning of the retirement of Patrick Boamah!!!”, he declared.

The launch was graced by party stalwarts including former deputy information minister, James Agyenim-Boateng, 2020 NDC Spokesperson on the Creative Industry, Rex Omar, Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Constituency, Members of the Council of Elders, 2016 and 2020 Parliamentary Candidate, former G/A Deputy youth organizer of the NDC Council of Zongo Chiefs.
