During a warm visit from the gospel artists to Afenyo-Markin's parliamentary office, the MP for Effutu expressed deep appreciation for their unwavering commitment and contributions during the election campaign.

He highlighted the duo's significant efforts in rallying support for the party and its flagbearer, Dr. Mahamudu Bawumia, who aimed to bring a fresh perspective to governance.

Afenyo-Markin reassured Ampong and Acheampong that the NPP is committed to conducting thorough internal elections and is actively preparing for future electoral contests.

He emphasised the importance of resilience and encouraged the artists not to be discouraged by the election outcome, but rather to continue their advocacy for the party, which has benefited from the passion and dedication of artists like them.

Additionally, Afenyo-Markin acknowledged the collective efforts from the gospel music community, including prominent figures like Diana Asamoah, who composed a vibrant campaign song for the NPP.

While their artistic contributions were commendable, Afenyo-Markin admitted that they fell short in swaying the electorate enough to secure victory in this highly competitive election cycle.

Nonetheless, he remains optimistic about the party's potential in the future and the vital role that artists can play in its success.

"You and your friends who mounted platforms to sing and encourage people, I want to emphasise that you should not be discouraged. I urge you and your colleagues to stand firm.
