Dr. Thaddious Kannyiri Banyen has successfully filed his nomination to contest the upcoming National Democratic Congress (NDC) parliamentary primaries in the Nadow-Kaleo Constituency.
He intimated that his bid to contest the primaries was premised on his desire to bring a paradigm shift in the kind of political leadership that has been practised in the constituency over the years, which was retarding the development of the area.
Speaking to the media at Nadowli after filing his nomination, Dr. Banyen who was a lecturer at the Simon Diedong Dombo University for Business and Integrated Development Studies (SDD UBIDS), noted that his constituency needed a development-oriented and people-centred leadership to engender the needed rapid development of the constituency.
“The reason I am contesting is to make sure that there is a paradigm shift in the kind of political leadership that the people have experienced over the years.
We are looking at development-oriented leadership, people-focused leadership so that we can develop our people, develop our community as rapidly as possible”, he said.
He said as a development planning analyst, he had developed an agenda that focused on solving the identified needs of the people in the constituency including the provision of school infrastructure, good roads, health facilities, potable drinking water, and electricity among others.
He said he had executed some projects in the constituency running into thousands of Ghana Cedis even as an individual and that becoming an MP would grant him the opportunity to do more for the people in the constituency.
He urged his supporters to engage in their campaign with decorum to ensure unity existed within the party after the primaries to enable the NDC party to win the 2024 general election.
Some of the delegates who accompanied Dr. Banyen to file his nomination said they were supporting a positive change in the political leadership of the constituency and pledged to support the aspirant to win the primaries.
