The news i waited for is here, no one is moved by items. After sharing fuels to drivers and given cloth and cash out even ended up last week to tell us to vote for Nana and vote for u has finally turned against u. I once said u should have contested the ngleshie/amanfrom seat to retain for ur party by u were so agresive of the wija seat and now the kokrobite seat is also with us. You cant set a record at weija so look elsewhere. the wind of change is still blowing
In fact, you people really think far, you did not allow yourselves to be swayed, you have done very well
Weija-Gbawe constituents, muani abue paaaaaa, God bless you all57

The most expensive campaign and show of affluence. Please the rest to take care of the orphans and poor in your family and the Almighty God will bless you. Humility pays.
What is written is written
Good job, lady!
The people of Weija-Gbawe have spoken! We are not moved by the sharing of goodies and the rape of the public purse for elaborate billboards and concerts and development projects being undertaken with our own money to sway us. Good show Tina!
