Former Member of Parliament (MP) for Sekondi, Andrew Egyapa Mercer, has embarked on a thank-you tour to express his gratitude to his constituents following his defeat in the 2024 elections.
In a Facebook post on Tuesday, 18th February, he acknowledged the overwhelming enthusiasm and support he received throughout his tenure and during the election period.
As part of his “Thank You Sekondi” tour, Egyapa Mercer met with the Sekondi Market Queen Mothers to engage in a discussion on the development of the constituency.
Reflecting on his eight years as MP, he highlighted his regular engagements with the market leaders and expressed disappointment over the government’s inability to complete the planned construction of the Sekondi Market.
He attributed the delay to financial constraints caused by post-COVID economic challenges, despite the project being included in the 2022-2024 Medium Term Public Investment Projects framework.
Egyapa Mercer urged the market leaders to remain hopeful about future development projects in Sekondi.
He reassured them that their concerns had been noted and encouraged them to continue advocating for progress in the constituency.
His discussions with the Queen Mothers underscored his commitment to fostering development, even beyond his tenure as MP.
Concluding his visit, Egyapa Mercer expressed his deep appreciation for the support he received over the years and encouraged his constituents to extend the same goodwill to the newly elected MP.
He emphasised the importance of unity and collective effort in advancing the growth of Sekondi, reinforcing his continued dedication to the community.
“We engaged in a highly productive discussion. During my 8 year tenure as MP of Sekondi, I regularly called upon the Sekondi Market Queens to share thoughts on how best we can further develop Sekondi.”
“I expressed disappointment about our inability as a government to make the planned construction of the Sekondi market a reality during my tenure due to the financial setbacks triggered by the post-Covid economic challenges even though the same was captured in the 2022-2024 Medium Term Public Investment Projects framework. I urged them to continue to be hopeful.”
