Mr William Neequaye, incumbent assembly member for Sabon Zongo Amoakrom Electoral Area in the Akuapem South Municipality of the Eastern Region, has retained his seat in the just-ended District Assembly election.
Mr Neequaye, who has been an assemblyman for 12 years, won by 442 as against 265 by Mr Yakubu Abudul and 196 votes by Mr Nicholas Mensah, the two other contenders for the seat.
In a post-election interview with the Ghana News Agency at Nsawam, Mr Neequaye expressed gratitude to the electorate who voted for him to retain the seat and urged his colleague contestants
not to be disappointed but rather come to his support in the effort to develop the area.
The Assemblyman-elect mentioned a 20-seater KVIP toilet at Sabon Zongo and boreholes at Yawkrom as some of the projects he would undertake in the area.
