Professor Titus Kofi Beyuo, a former General Secretary of the Ghana Medical Association (GMA) and the National Democratic Congress’ (NDC) parliamentary candidate for the Lambussie Constituency in the Upper West Region, has claimed a notable victory in the 2024 elections.
In a decisive outcome, Prof. Beyuo unseated the incumbent New Patriotic Party (NPP) Member of Parliament, Bright Bakye Yelviel Baligi, securing 13,551 votes.
His win represents a significant gain for the NDC and reaffirms his status as a respected academic and public health advocate.
Bright Bakye Yelviel Baligi, the sitting MP, garnered 6,079 votes, falling considerably short of retaining the seat.
The election highlighted a shift in voter preference within the Lambussie Constituency, reflecting growing support for the NDC.
A third candidate, Mohammed Imuran of the Liberal Party of Ghana (LPG), also vied for the seat but failed to meaningfully impact the final tally.
Prof. Beyuo’s victory strengthens the NDC’s representation in the region and marks a personal triumph in his political journey.
