I would be a better MP’s wife when given the mandate – Empress Gifty declares
11th November 2024
Gospel musician Empress Gifty has expressed how excited she would be if her husband, Hopeson Adorye, is ever elected as a Member of Parliament.
In an interview with Joy Prime, the renowned singer shared her eagerness for her husband to assume that position, stating that she would set an exemplary standard for the wives of other Members of Parliament if he is voted into office.
"I would be happy if my husband is voted into power as an MP. When my husband is in parliament, do you know the soldiers who will be around me? I will make other MP wives admire me for what I will do," she said.
Empress Gifty also shared her larger vision, hinting at aspirations beyond being an MP’s wife.
"There are a lot of responsibilities and opportunities these people can use based on the mandates given to their husbands, but they don’t realize it. So, if one day you wake up to see me as First Lady or even a running mate, don’t be surprised because I have a bigger vision," she added.
Mr. Hopeson Yaovi Adorye is a former NPP Parliamentary Candidate for the Kpone Katamanso constituency.
He later abandoned his parliamentary ambitions in favour of the party’s national campaign, before eventually defecting to Alan Kyerematen’s ‘Movement for Change’ political party.
Before joining Alan Kyerematen's camp, Hopeson was among the prominent NPP members whose party membership was revoked by the NPP.
