Incumbent Member of Parliament (MP) for the Awutu Senya West constituency, Hanna Tetteh stated clearly that she\u00a0\u201cnot scared\u201d facing New Patriotic Party\u2019s aspiring parliamentary candidate, George Andah in the 2016 elections.<\/p>\n

[contextly_sidebar id=”ItUvzljSCCZtR40ZztksWk4szzkT5A5z”]The former Chief Marketing Officer at MTN, George Andah has expressed optimism about unseating Hanna Tetteh<\/strong><\/span><\/a> if given the nod to lead the NPP in that constituency saying, \u201cI do not believe that the Awutu-Senya West seat is safe for the NDC.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hanna Tetteh who has been elected as an MP for the area on two different occasions has said she is unperturbed by any candidate the NPP brings onboard to face her.<\/p>\n

She was responding to a question by\u00a0Citi Breakfast Show <\/strong>host, Bernard Avle.<\/p>\n

Are you scared? “No!” she responded.<\/p>\n

Worried? “No!” she insisted.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe NPP was going to have a candidate anyway and was going to try as much as possible to get the best candidate to contest for the seat. That\u2019s the nature of politics, so that\u2019s nothing unusual as far as I\u2019m concerned.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been in this business for a while. The election is not about me neither is it about George Andah, it\u2019s about the people of Awutu Senya West and the choices they make. And so for me it\u2019s focusing on the constituency and making sure that as far as I am concerned they are in a position to make an assessment of my performance and take their decision on that basis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Though Hanna Tetteh who doubles as the \u00a0Minister of Foreign Affairs and Regional Integration conceded that her ministerial position is\u00a0affecting how regularly she would have loved to interact with her constituents, she said \u00a0\u201cknowing that, I make an effort as much as possible when I have about a week continuously to go to the constituency over the weekend and engage, but I have a good organization in the constituency.\u201d<\/p>\n

She also noted she has a formidable team of NDC members in her constituency who work assiduously to ensure that the people of his area benefits from the better Ghana Agenda in her absence adding that: \u201cpolitics is not about a person, it\u2019s about organization and structures and numbers and I have a great team I work with and I think they do a very great job.\u201d<\/p>\n
