Failed New Patriotic Party (NPP) Flagbearer-contender, Stephen Asamoah Boateng during the party�s Super Delegates Congress to reduce the number of aspirants seeking to lead the party in the 2016 presidential elections from seven to five strategized to decoy delegates with a nicely designed �take-away food pack� embossed with his picture containing food. Even though Asamoah Boateng was very optimistic of his inclusion in the final five [5] to battle for the main NPP flagbearer position on October 18 when he spoke with Peacefmonlone.comin an interview, he attempted to poll some votes with his face embellish "take-away food pack" filled with jollof rice and chicken knowing very well delegates needed to be fed. �Vote No. 2 Asamoah Boateng the message on the packed food was overlooked by almost all the delegates who tasted �Asabee�s Fast Food�. The former Mfantseman West Parliamentarian also known as �Asabee� after feeding delegates managed to poll only 13 votes across the country, representing 1.76% of the total vote cast which automatically exempted his ambition of nursing a presidential dream. Some delegates, in an interview with Daily Guide newspaper said; �although Asabee is a good fellow [but] it is not his time to lead the party and he needs more training and preparation for the future. �This is the time of Nana Addo and all should rally behind him in the upcoming delegates� congress on 18th October,� they opined. Recalling his presidential get-up-and-go, Asabee had cast himself as the biblical David ready to slug it out with Goliath [Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo]. Picking up nomination forms, the NPP�s self-acclaimed David outlined three challenges David faced in pulling off a life-changing victory over the nine-foot giant. He said �David faced the condescending stares of his elder brothers, the skepticism of King Saul and who thought David was a joke but the joke turned on Goliath himself.� However, in this case the �joke� is rather on ��David� Stephen Asamoah Boateng� who has been neglected by his own admirers.
