The Energy Minister was captured on tape saying this during a rally in the Kumawu constituency ahead of election.
In a rather interesting twist to events leading up to the all awaited bye-election in Kumawu, the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament for Manhyia and Minister of Energy, Dr. Matthew Opoku Prempeh, has made a shocking statement that the party will win the bye-election in Kumawu and subsequent ones using just party T-Shirts without campaigning for votes.
“If we cannot organize campaign rallies, let’s use our money to print T-Shirts and distribute to our party faithful and everyone – after all, our NPP T-Shirts are beautiful and I don’t think anybody will be wearing them and go vote for another party,” he stated.
