Incumbent MP for the Wenchi Constituency, Professor George Gyan Baffour has decided not to represent his constituency after the 2024 national elections.

He said this after winning the just ended NPP parliamentary elections.

The 69-year old revealed that, it has become necessary for him to put politics on a hold since he needed some rest.

The honourable MP defeated four other aspirants in the primaries to represent Wenchi constituency in the General elections.

“On the parliamentary thing, I am not going to stand again, I am 69 actually and I think from age 70 to 74 you have to go and rest somewhere but I will not be out of politics because I believe in democracy.”

“I was born a democrat in 1951 and before Busia left this country in 1959; my father and my people were all for him and when he was leaving this place through Sampa to go abroad, my father was running into the bush. Democracy has been part of my blood even though my father was not educated he believed in democracy, so I believe in the democratic principles and I will fight for them and I will die for them.”
