Akosua Manu, the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) parliamentary candidate for Adentan in the 2024 elections, has penned a heartfelt message to her fellow party member, Akua Afriyie, in the wake of the Electoral Commission’s (EC) decision to rerun elections in 19 polling stations in the Ablekuma North constituency.

“I know the battles you have fought and the work you have done to get this far,” she wrote.
“To work so hard and attain the goal but have victory snatched from your hands… that is the hand we are dealt.”
Despite the setback, Akosua encouraged Akua to find strength in the journey, describing her as a symbol of perseverance.

Akosua Manu’s message has since drawn admiration from party faithful and sympathisers alike, with many praising the show of solidarity among NPP women leaders.
