Addressing a press conference dubbed: “Boniaye Kai” at the Mamponteng palace, Barima Saasi Ayeboafo II lamented how roads in the Constituency have deteriorated in the last few years.

He accused the ruling government of neglect and sounded caution that his people have now opened their eyes.

“What sin have we committed against the NPP for denying us development despite voting massively for the party?

“From now onwards, we will vote based on development,” Barima Saasi Ayeboafo II stressed.
