Ato Forson Thanks Constituents For 18 Years Of Support In Parliament
Finance Minister and Member of Parliament for Ajumako Enyan Essiam in the Central Region, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, has expressed gratitude to his constituents for their trust, support and understanding throughout his 18 years of service in Parliament.
Speaking at the Enyan Abaasa Akwambo festival durbar, Dr Forson said he was particularly grateful to the people for continuing to support him despite the increased demands of his role as Finance Minister.
“Every time I come home, my heart is full of love,” he said.
“I came, first and foremost, to thank the people of Enyan Abaasa for your understanding and for trusting me to serve you all these years.”
Dr Forson acknowledged that his responsibilities as Finance Minister under President John Dramani Mahama had made it more difficult for him to visit the constituency as frequently as he used to.
He said he remained grateful to the people for their patience and continued confidence in his leadership despite his demanding national responsibilities.
The Finance Minister also recalled the advice of the Paramount Chief of the Enyan Abaasa Traditional Area, Osagyefo Kwamena Akonu, who encouraged him to remain focused on his responsibilities, effectively represent the constituency and avoid wrongdoing.
According to Dr Forson, the traditional leader had assured him that the welfare of the people in the constituency would be well taken care of while he concentrated on his national duties.
“Nana, you advised me to concentrate on the job, knowing that our people were in your care.
Since my return, I have seen for myself that all is indeed well,” Dr Forson said.
He used the occasion to reaffirm his appreciation to the traditional authorities and constituents for their support and understanding as he continues to combine his responsibilities as the Member of Parliament for Ajumako Enyan Essiam with his duties as Finance Minister.
