The Bantama Constituency Member of Parliament in the Ashanti region, Mr. Asenso Boakye, has voiced reservations regarding the eligibility of his competitor, Lawyer Ralph Opoku Agyepong, in the upcoming New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary primaries.

Lawyer Ralph Opoku Agyepong has acquired the nomination form to challenge Mr. Asenso Boakye in the party's primaries.

Mr. Asenso Boakye argues that his opponent does not meet the party's constitutional requirements for candidacy.

According to Mr. Asenso Boakye, the party's Constitution mandates a minimum of two years of active party involvement for eligibility to participate in parliamentary primaries.

He asserts that his contender has been minimally involved in the party for just over three months, making him ineligible.

However, Mr. Asenso Boakye has chosen not to pursue the disqualification of his competitor.

He confidently affirms that he sees his contender as no match for him, emphasizing his confidence in securing another term in any upcoming election.

Speaking to the media after submitting his nomination form for the second time to vie for the seat, Mr. Asenso Boakye reiterated his dedication to serving the constituency and expressed confidence in winning another term.
