The Chairmanship Candidate for the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), Ahoada East Local Government Area, Newton Gordon Kpasa, has assured the people that his team’s 5-point- agenda would bring development to the area if he is elected.

The APGA Chairmanship Candidate further revealed that, outside his Team’s 5-Points Agenda, they would hold regular town hall meetings for an easy flow of communication and understanding, he wondered why an incumbent who has not done any notable project with the excuse of getting monthly zero allocation, would vie for second term.
He called on the people to vote out maladministration, lack of dividends of democracy, selfish governance and a government that can not protect lives and property of the people as characterized by the present PDP led government in the area.
Kpasa assured the people that with APGA government in power, they would positively feel the impact of governance.
