Sarah Adwoa Safo to contest NPP primary for Dome-Kwabenya

Sarah Adwoa Safo, the former Member of Parliament for Dome-Kwabenya, has officially announced her intention to contest the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) upcoming parliamentary primaries. Her bid marks an attempt to reclaim the seat she previously held, representing one of the largest and most politically significant constituencies in the Greater Accra Region. Safo stated that her decision to seek a return to the legislature follows a period of careful reflection and extensive dialogue with key stakeholders.

According to the former legislator, her return to active politics was motivated by consultations with both national and local party leadership, as well as constituents who believe her leadership is still vital for the area. Safo expressed a renewed commitment to serving the more than 200,000 residents of Dome-Kwabenya, emphasizing that her experience is necessary to drive the continued development of the constituency. She noted that her focus remains on addressing both the existing challenges and the emerging opportunities within the community.

Safo’s campaign is expected to center on open engagement with party members and the broader electorate to discuss the future growth of the constituency. During her previous tenure, she was a high-profile figure within the NPP, serving as the Minister for Gender, Children, and Social Protection. She now aims to convince party delegates that she remains the best candidate to represent the interests of Dome-Kwabenya on the national stage.

The upcoming internal contest will be a significant test of Safo’s political resilience and her standing within the party local structures. As the NPP prepares for its primary elections, her candidacy sets the stage for a competitive race in a constituency that is often viewed as a bellwether for the party’s performance in the Greater Accra Region.
