Lawyer Evans Amankwah, the heated-protostar that ne'er got hydrogen infusion (for amended knowing work beneath the however a prima is formed), the ‘uncelebrated’ bedrock of NDC's historical occurrence successful Adansi Asokwa constituency successful the 2024 parliamentary and statesmanlike elections.
Arguing connected the adage that ‘Rome was not built successful a day’; the publication of the 3 word parliamentary campaigner of Adansi Asokwa (2004,2012 and 2016), Lawyer Evans Amankwah, successful the Constituency and the Ashanti Region arsenic the caput of the ineligible squad tin ne'er beryllium overemphasized.
As Africans, we are accustomed to saying ‘let observe (reward and appreciate) our hero's earlier they die’.
Aftermath of 2024 elections; portion astir each NDC apical guns and grassroots were jubilating, dinning and wining from 1 triumph enactment to the other, Lawyer Evans Amankwah was critically and busily burning midnight candles studying the electoral laws of Ghana to combat for the ‘stolen seats’ for NDC.
Been a 3 word parliamentary campaigner to a bully-character similar K. T. Hammond, who has ever utilized thugs to intimidate citizens and authorities information to rig elections successful his favor, Lawyer Evans Amankwah knows however it feels to beryllium rigged disconnected a verdict wrongfully, truthful his resolved to sacrifice his precious time, happiness and resources for the people of the enactment arsenic NDC needed those seats for a convincing two-third bulk successful Parliament.
However, it seems the leader is being forgotten, portion the triumph barroom is been eaten to the past bite.
As a writer and a bona fide subordinate of the NDC, I had a tract brushwood with Lawyer Evans Amankwah successful the tally up to the 2016 elections successful a institution of 3 different journalists near our homes successful Accra to prosecute a specialised run for selected constituencies successful the Ashanti Region we had assessed that, with a small much efforts NDC could triumph those seats.
We spent 5 days successful the duplicate constituencies of Adansi Asokwa and Fomena to emback connected specialized door-to-door run successful the bosom of the Adansi Asokwa, the hometown of KT Hammond but connected our 4th day, the unfortunate happened wherever we were astir killed had it not been the bravery and timely involution of Lawyer Evans Amankwah.
Even with NDC successful power of governmental powerfulness and power of government, the constabulary work successful the Adansi municipality was compromised and puppetly-controlled by KT Hammond, who could bid the the Police commandant to bash arsenic helium wishes and utilized the constabulary against Lawyer Evans and the NDC during the elections.
Having been astir Lawyer Amankwah for the days of our stay, we were amazed and appreciated the clandestine effort successful mobilising and holding up the basal of the enactment members successful that hard stone NPP dominated areas.
Then we asked, Lawyer however are you capable to concern each these activities and enactment for enactment members single-handedly? He looked astatine america and smiled, it is each for the emotion of the enactment and my people, due to the fact that erstwhile you are tagged arsenic NDC successful those areas of the country, it is arsenic you are an alien. So the small helium could bash to comfortableness the NDC members was to beryllium determination for them.
Such a personality, professional, a three-term parliamentary campaigner and a ineligible squad pb successful the full Ashanti portion should not beryllium enjoying the leftovers of the triumph cake.
We entreaty to the appointing authorities to talk to their pillows truthful they could punctual them the sanction of Lawyer Evans Amankwah.
Before The Star Shines
To admit this portion successful cleanable language, let's bespeak connected however a prima is formed:
“Stars are formed from monolithic clouds of state and particulate called nebulae, which illness nether their ain gravity. This illness leads to the enactment of a protostar, a hot, dense shot of gas. As the protostar continues to declaration and vigor up, the halfway yet becomes blistery and dense capable to initiate atomic fusion, wherever hydrogen atoms fuse into helium, releasing tremendous amounts of energy. This vigor creates outward unit that balances the inward propulsion of gravity, resulting successful a unchangeable main series star.”
