NDC can win five remaining Greater Accra parliamentary seats in 2028 election – Amorse

Amos Blessing Amorse, the Greater Accra Regional Secretary for the National Democratic Congress (NDC), predicts that the party can secure five of the remaining parliamentary seats it lost in the 2024 elections. Mr Amorse expressed his optimism about the NDC's potential expansion of parliamentary representation in the region during the 2028 elections on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen. He pointed out that despite losing some parliamentary seats, the party still managed to win 29 out of the 34 constituencies in the 2024 presidential elections.

Mr Amorse also mentioned that his party had reportedly won the constituencies of Tema Central, Okaikwei Central, and Weija, although the Electoral Commission did not agree with these claims. He emphasized that being in government would make the NDC more vulnerable to scrutiny over its promises and that adjustments in their campaign strategy would be necessary to retain their current seats.

The NDC hopeful dismissed suggestions that the New Patriotic Party (NPP) could regain control of the Tema East parliamentary seat, citing the party's previous victories over former MP Titus Glover and Dr Bernard Okoe Boye. Mr Amorse also defended his own chances in the upcoming internal elections within the NDC, asserting his confidence in winning against his opponents after having faced them in previous political contests.
