President Nana Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has told constituents in Assin North not to vote for a candidate who is standing trial in court during the by-election.

Addressing a gathering in the constituency on Sunday, June 25, he said for the constituency to witness the needed development, a candidate with legal issues should not be voted for.

“They say even if Gyakye Quayson is in jail they will vote for him, are we going to vote for someone who is going to prison?

“What benefits will the people derive from voting for such a person? We want someone  when he is voted for can come to me and plan how to develop the constituency.”

The election will be taking place tomorrow Tuesday, June 27.
