In recent times, you may be wondering the renewed hope and vigour behind the Ashanti Regional leadership of the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP) led by Chairman Bernard Antwi Boasiako, popularly known as Chairman Wontumi.
From the huge success achieved by the Vice-President during the presidential primary last November to the successful organisation of his three-day campaign tour of Ashanti, one figure remains conspicuous visible.
Hon. Dr. Ayew Afriye
It is the 46-year-old Effiduase Asokore Legislator, Hon. Dr. Ayew Afriye.
The young energetic lawmaker is currently the pillar behind most successful political events in the Ashanti Region and beyond.
As the campaign coordinator for the Middle-Belt, Hon. Afriye has conducted himself with such alacrity and dexterity that he has now become the toast of supporters and the leadership of the party, including Chairman Wontumi.
One of his landmark achievements was his ability to revive the interest of Chairman Wontumi, whose political hiatus nearly plunged the ruling party into abyss.
As a leading member of the once-powerful Alliance For Accountable Governance (AFAG), the true-blooded Asante has never looked back, spending his entire life and resources on the party’s grassroots campaign before his efforts were finally crowned with a reward to represent his constituents in Parliament.
His constituency also won the highest votes for the Vice-President and eventual winner of the presidential primary.
Hon. Dr. Afriye is seen by many as a unifier and someone who can fit into any political role because of his well-endowed experience and youthful exuberance.
