Popular Ghanaian media personality Captain Smart is taking his political ambitions very seriously. The outspoken broadcaster recently announced his intention to contest the upcoming NDC primaries for the Gomoa West Constituency. He is already shaking the grounds with massive promises and real action.
Captain Smart just pledged to construct a brand new clinic for the people of Gomoa Mankessim. Residents have struggled with healthcare access for years so this promise brings major relief. He wants to ensure that pregnant women and sick children get fast medical attention right in their community. This new clinic will definitely save many lives and reduce the stress of traveling far for basic healthcare.
This clinic promise forms part of several development projects the aspiring parliamentary candidate has mapped out. Some of these projects are actually already completed which proves he is not just doing empty talking. When politicians back their words with solid action the voters naturally pay close attention.
Just a few weeks ago JoyNews reported that Captain Smart promised vocational skills training for 3000 women in Gomoa West. He clearly understands that empowering women financially builds a stronger local economy. Combining healthcare improvements with economic empowerment is a very smart strategy to win the hearts of delegates.
The race for the Gomoa West NDC primaries is definitely heating up and bringing good things to the people. Captain Smart is building serious momentum and keeping his opponents on their toes. We will keep watching closely to see if he eventually secures the ticket to represent the constituency.
