Former Minister of Information Stephen Asamoah Boateng has pleaded with independent parliamentary aspirant for the Klottey Korle Constituency, Nii Noi Nortey, to return to the party.
“To my brother and close friend Nii Noi, if he is listening and if anyone here can trace him, they should go and tell him that I am on my knees and in all humility calling on him to return to the party so that we can work together as one,” Asa B, as he is popularly known, pleaded.
He made these calls at the Arts Centre in Accra during the campaign tour of NPP flag bearer Nana Akufo-Addo.
Mr Nortey was beaten in the last re-run of the party’s parliamentary primary in the constituency by Philip Addison, who polled 396 votes.
Prior to that, Mr Nortey had been declared winner in an earlier primary on August 2, 2015 but Mr Addison challenged the results in court, which was upheld, occasioning the re-run.
Mr Nortey had indicated that his decision to go independent resonated with the masses hence the decision.
But Mr Boateng feels Mr Nortey can best serve the nation by being part of the Danquah-Busia-Dombo party as he insisted at the rally on Wednesday, October 5, that : “It is the love for the country that we are doing this and not about me, neither is it about him [Mr Nortey]”
He also charged the electorate to vote for Mr Akufo-Addo to change the fortunes of the country. He argued that the governing National Democratic Congress (NDC) has “failed to honour the numerous promises they made to Ghanaians”.

Thank you very much Asa Bee I think Nii Noi must follow the steps of Hon Kokofu of Bantama and withdraw the decision of going solo. Together we stand divided we fall. There are so many opportunities for him if he comes back.
Nii Noi as your name portrays, you are a king already, bro come back for a united victory. As you stated in the television interview we appreciate and respect your views but bind as the broom is for Victory 2016(Freedom in Development) ...
As the presidential candidate said "Thank You", Asa B is pleading. Pride comes before a fall indeed. Klottey Korle is very interesting, and I don't see the winner for Parliament having a big margin. Zenator Nii Noi Addison Lokko in the order.
Asabee has better temperament than the Lilliput who calls himself presidential candidate. He will lose botoooo. He does not know what is called diplomacy. The man he was bidding goodbye to has a huge following even more than he nana. Get humble small pls.
How many times does Nii Noi and others want to be begged? Is the begging not enough? We cannot continue begging people who have made up their minds and do not want to listen to reason and good counsel.
Somebody who want to be a minister of this country claiming as a mature person seeking to occupie a ministering position and you cant even acept a simple defeat rather going for independent and you expect Nana Addo to come and beg you Nana doesnt have such time for childish minded people he want a seriouse contestant who can run this country with him Nana Addo I like your decision paaaaaa you are not ready for any unseriouse people biaaaa
