Chief Executive of Crystal Rose Ambassador Hotel, Rose Hamilton, is confident of beating popular Chief, Nana Nkansah Boadu to represent the Ashanti region on the Council of State.
She believes her vision to push President John Mahama to drive development to the Ashanti region will receive the needed endorsement from the Electoral College.
Mrs Hamilton wants to push her ideas to position Ashanti Region as a conducive environment for commerce which is vital to economic development.
In an interview with JoyNews, she emphasised that “my entrepreneurial journey and community engagements have equipped me with the skills, insights, and passion needed to champion the needs of our people on the Council of State.”
By law, the Council of State is to counsel the President in the performance of his functions. Aside from persons appointed by the President, in consultation with Parliament, a member of the Council is elected in each of the regions of the country.
By first-past-the-post formula, persons who show interest in the position are elected by an electoral college consisting of two representatives of each of the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies of the Region.
Mrs. Hamilton wants the members of the Electoral College to consider her track record of service, dedication, and innovation as they cast their ballots for representation of the region.
She believes her candidature reflects an "unwavering commitment to fostering unity, economic growth, and progress for all in the Ashanti Region."
