Musician-turned-politician and now the Member of Parliament for Gomoa Central, Kwame Asare Obeng, popularly known as A Plus has revealed that one of his main reasons for running for Parliament was to prove his critics wrong.
In an interview on the Upside Down Show on Sunday May 4, A Plus said many people doubted him when he first announced his intention to contest.
“People didn’t believe in me; some even left negative comments on social media about my flyer,” he said.
He shared that broadcaster Nana Aba Anamoah had posted his campaign flyer on social media, but later took it down because of the backlash it received.
Despite the criticism, A Plus said he remained focused and encouraged others to do the same.
“Focus on whatever you want to achieve rather than paying attention to negative feedback from others,” he advised.
Apart from wanting to prove himself, A Plus said he genuinely wants to help the people of Gomoa Central, the constituency he represents.
“I’m going to make the people of Gomoa proud, and I will help you,” he promised, adding that he is committed to addressing the challenges facing his community.
