These children do not vote so nobody could accuse me of soliciting votes from them.

The activity she is engaged in did not start today as the Maame Pokua Loan Scheme (MPLS) has been in operation and supporting women for the past 12 years.

The NPP in the Agona East knows of my interventions in the constituency, and therefore their claims that they do not know the monies I am giving out are loans are lies.

Last year I did it, two years ago I did it, three years ago I did it and four years I did it though my party is not in power.

So this is a loan scheme and we have an account at the Kwanyako Rural Bank. They can go and check the MPLS, it is there.
