Following the defeat of Dome Kwabenya Member of Parliament, Sarah Adwoa Safo, some Rumours suggest she may go independent.
As the the incumbent MP for Dome Kwabenya constituency, Adwoa Safo lost her parliamentary seat in the just-ended New Patriotic Party’s primaries after she disappeared from parliament for several months.
At close of polls, she received a total of 328 votes, representing 19.20% while her contender Mike Ocquaye Jnr secured victory with 1,194 votes representing 69.91%.
After her defeat, some reports suggest she may be considering an independent run.
Some of her supporters in the primaries have said they won’t back her should she go independent.
Kwabena Asante, a key polling station Executive of the NPP said she won’t get their support if she runs independent.
”First of all, I don’t think Adwoa Safo will go independent because she loves the NPP. But if things don’t turn out well and she surprisingly decides to go independent, we cannot follow her out of the party. We are first of all NPP members and our commitment remains with the party so we will stay in the party to fight hard for its victory come December 7, 2024.” The party delegate said on Kasapa 102.5FM Monday.
“We are committed to breaking the 8-year governance cycle in the upcoming election and we will do everything possible to realize that dream,” he added.
