The Member of Parliament for Bongo Constituency Edward Bawa has told Apexnewsgh.com that beating his main contender Peter Ayinbisa of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) with almost 10,000 votes at the just ended December 7, 2020 elections, was the biggest victory the NDC has gotten since the 1992 elections.
You see I told him earlier that, is not a question of coming to sit on the radio talking big. Indeed, if you want to look at an election since 1992, is one of the biggest victories NDC has gotten in Bongo and I beat him with almost 10,000 votes, this was someone who was going around talking to people and telling them he is picking up the seat.
According to Mr. Bawa, he showed his contender Peter Ayinbisa who doubles as the Bongo District Chief Executive (DCE) smooth less level even after taking advantage of all the media houses claiming 500 people defected from NDC to NPP in Lugho which he said the information was false.
However, Mr, Bawa said after all false claims, channel out by his contender, he went ahead beat him in his own zone winning 9 polling stations out of 10.
“I beat him in his own zone, out of 10 polling stations, I won 9. Even his own polling station where he voted, he beats me with only 4 votes. Some time ago, he went and was touting that 500 people have defected to NPP at Lugho electoral area which was a fallacy. I went to his village, organized a rally. But in his village, Peter could not even organize a big rally. I organized on the 4th and he wanted to organize on the 5th but he couldn’t get people to come out.”
Meanwhile Edward won the Bongo Parliamentary constituency with ease by gaining 26, 276 votes, as his close contender Peter Ayinbisa of the New Patriotic Party struggle to get 17,276.
