Gyakye Quayson Will Keep Assin North Seat Even In Prison – Muntaka Mubarak1 min read

Member of Parliament for Asawase, Muntaka Mubarak, is convinced come hell or high water, James Gyakye Quayson is going to win the Assin-North seat and retain it.

Speaking in an exclusive interview with the media, he said, the worst state prosecutors can do to Gyakye Quayson is to imprison him, but even that will not stop the aspiring MP from retaining his seat.

Gyakye Quayson is facing charges of forgery and perjury concerning certain alleged offences in the run-up to the 2020 Assin North parliamentary election.

He has been charged with five counts of forgery of passport or travel certificate, knowingly making a false statutory declaration, perjury and false declaration for office.

If found guilty, he could spend up to 10 years behind bars.

However, Muntaka Mubarak is convinced even the fear of prison will not deter Gyakye Quayson and the NDC from winning and retaining the Assin North seat.

He noted that the current mental fortitude Gyakye Quayson has built ahead of his trial is all that matters to the party, and will ensure his victory.
