TV3 in an interview with some residents of Kumawu where a bye elections was held recently, they told journalists that " We saw them bringing a grader to clear the road for construction, so I asked myself that if the MP should not have died, the road wouldn' t have been constructed"
They continued that massive developments have been seen in Kumawu and Assin North hence same can happen when their MPs die.
