Musician turned politician Bice Osei Kufour popularly known as Obour has revealed his deep allegiance to the New Patriotic Party (NPP), explaining it runs through the blood of his family.
In an interview on GBC Radio Central Obour said, “NPP is a party that I have always admired from my boyhood days. It is a family that we all belong to since both my mother and father are all card-bearing members of the great NPP.”
According to him, he had been working behind the scenes as a staunch NPP member for years now and has finally come to the forefront now.
“So all these while, it has been a party that I find very exciting because of their ideals and philosophy. That’s why I’m now a known member of NPP but I have been behind the scenes for some time now,” he stated.
Obour lost his bid to be Member of Parliament on the ticket of the NPP in the Asante Akyem South constituency in the Ashanti Region.
He polled 296 votes while incumbent Member of Parliament, Kwaku Asante Boateng polled 360. The other aspirants, Edmond Oppong Peprah, William Yamoah, and Eric Amofa polled nine, 32, and eight respectively.
