General Secretary of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), Lawyer Justin Frimpong Kodua, has indicated his Party winning the Ejisu by-election with more votes than what the late MP had in the 2020 General Elections.
According to Lawyer Kodua, the party, despite losing its industrious MP, John Kumah through death, is poised to win the by-election with an increased votes margin.
Referring to the NPP’s solid foundation of development in the area, he was confident that the Party would retain the seat.
“We have worked hard and related well with the people in the constituency”, he said.

Lawyer Kodua disclosed that “Ejisu people have continuously shown commitment to us by endorsing our candidates as Members of Parliament since 1996 and we are committed to retaining the parliamentary seat in the upcoming by-election so we can continue with both the development projects and initiatives we’ve started”.
The By-election has been necessitated by the death on March 7, 2024, of the Member of Parliament of the constituency, Dr John Ampontuah Kumah.
Of note is that the National Democratic Congress (NDC), the largest opposition party has decided not to contest the election slated for April 30, 2024, whilst Hon Kwabena Owusu Aduomi, a former NPP MP for Ejisu is contesting as an independent candidate.
