Similarly, in Sekondi, NDC’s Blay Nyameke Armah triumphed over Andrew Egyapa Mercer of the NPP, securing 14,558 votes (56.40%) against Mercer’s 11,084 votes (42.94%). A total of 25,813 votes were cast in Sekondi, with 171 rejected ballots.
These pivotal victories underscore the NDC’s increasing momentum in the 2024 elections, strengthening its parliamentary representation and reshaping the political landscape in critical constituencies.
