The parliamentary aspirant for the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Weija-Gbawe Constituency, Jerry Ahmed Shaib, has implored Ghanaians to be guided by the competence of can­didates to determine their vote in the upcoming general election. "We should not push tribal politics.

People should be voted for based on their capabilities, their capacity and what they can do and that should be the only benchmark for electing a candidate in this elections", he said.

Mr Shaib was speaking at the Presbyterian Church of Ghana, Emmanuel Congregation-Djaman last Sunday, as part of his cam­paign tour of the constituency to solicit the votes of constituents in the December 7 polls.

Going against Felix Odartey Lamptey, of the National Dem­ocratic Congress (NDC) and two other candidates, Mr Shaib, stated that his works in the area, even though unelected, speaks for itself and was optimistic that, it would earn him the nod as the next Member of Parliament for the constituency.
