After hearing in the wind that award winning female gospel musician, Gifty Osei, is on an adventure of becoming Member of Parliament MP, GhanaCelebrities.Com established contact with the Tufuhene of Senya Beraku traditional area, Nenyi Kwa Bentum IV, who has disclosed that its true – that they have sealed talks with her to vie for the Member of Parliament MP seat in their constituency.
Recounting the contribution of Gifty Osei to her native land, Nenyi Kwa Bentum IV said, “If you will remember, last 3 years during our durbar, we made her Peace and Development Ambassador. Since that time till now, she has really done well in following up on developmental issues in the area.”
Touching on the main reason why they settled on Gifty Osei, he said: “Since anyone yearns for development and she has not disappointed us over the years with her development ambassadorial role, we thought it expedient to fall on her. We called on her and presented the proposal to her and she gladly accepted our offer but begged to discuss it with her husband.”
According to Nenyi Kwa Bentum IV, whichever political party’s slot Gifty Osei chooses to ride on to become the MP is not a worry to them. “We are presenting a human being – not a party. We don’t care which political party she belongs to or chooses to use their ticket to campaign. Whether she goes with NPP, NDC, or as independent candidate, we don’t mind.”
He also affirmed their deepest confidence in her. “Everyone has reasons for going into politics – the money, personal interest, but we have absolute confidence in her. She can do it. We know she won’t go and forget about us or turn her back at us when we call on her for help” he ended.
The 2012 VGMA Gospel Artist of the year was in shock when GhanaCelebrities.Com got in touch with her for inquiry into her new to be explored adventure.
“So how did you people get wind of this one too? (Laughed) she asked. Confirming, she stated, “It’s true. It’s true the chiefs and opinion leaders in my hometown called on me and suggested to me that they and the entire community wish I become the MP of the Senya Beraku Constituency.
