Accra, Feb 29, GNA- The New Patriotic Party in the Asuogyaman Constituency has congratulated Mr Pius Enam Hadzide on his selection to the Party’s Manifesto Committee on Youth and Sports for the 2024 general election.
A statement signed and issued by Christian Okomfo Addo, Constituency Secretary, said Mr Hadzide’s appointment demonstrated the flagbearer’s confidence and vindicated the trust and confidence that the party leadership, chiefs, and good people of Asuogyaman had all placed in him.

Pius Enam Hadzide is leading the construction of an Astro-turf Park with flood lights and ancillary facilities at Senchi-Ferry, investing heavily in the construction of a Youth Resource Center at Apeguso, the building of schools, community water systems, sheds, places of convenience and many others,” it added.
