The House of Assembly hopeful said: “If given the ticket, i will make my party proud. The incumbent does not know the plight of the people, am a grass root man.”

“Before development strives in any society, the place must be safe. I am coming to give my people of Brass Constituency 1 the needed peace and attract development.
“My primary responsibility has always been to give adequate representation to our people through regular interactions; even though we are there to make laws that will bring about the enhancements of the socio-economic well-being of our people, as well as carry out appropriation and oversight of the same funds appropriated for the executives and the system,” Desmond stated.
The Assembly hopeful who is also known as “Fisherman, the new phase boss of Twon brass” called on party leaders in Brass Constituency 1 and the State to look out for candidates who are loved by the masses.
