Western North NDC targets all nine parliamentary seats in 2028

The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in Ghana's Western North Region has set its sights on securing all nine parliamentary seats in the region ahead of the 2028 general elections, according to Adom Online. Currently, the NDC holds eight of the nine constituencies, with the Suaman seat being contested by the New Patriotic Party (NPP).

The party's regional chairman, Michael Aidoo, known as Big Aidoo, made this assertion during a sod-cutting ceremony for the construction of a new NDC regional office at Sefwi Wiawso. The shift in the region's political landscape following the 2024 elections, where the NDC increased its seat count to eight from six, has bolstered their confidence in achieving a complete parliamentary sweep in 2028.

Big Aidoo attributed this success to the party's strong presence and the government's development initiatives in the region. The NDC's primary focus is now on the Suaman constituency, which they view as the last remaining seat to achieve their goal of total control. Additionally, they have issued a warning to the incumbent NPP MP for Suaman, signaling their determination to win the seat in the upcoming election.

The NDC's new headquarters, set to be completed next year, will serve as a permanent base for their operations, replacing their current rented office.
