Accra, July 28, GNA – The Okaikwei South Constituency is considered as a stronghold of the New Patriotic Party (NPP) in the Greater Accra Region.
Since its creation, the NPP has been the dominant Party in the Constituency and has won seven out of eight elections when the country returned to constitutional rule in 1992.
In 1992, Mr Orlando Aryee of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) won the seat for the first time after the NPP boycotted the elections.
However, in 1996 when the NPP contested, Nana Akomea claimed the seat for the Party and continued to win in three consecutive elections, that is 2000, 2004 and 2008.
Nana Akomea in 2012, bowed out and was succeeded by Mr Ahmed Arthur who was an Assembly Man for the Kaneshie Electoral area.
