Mr Woyome, who had been the MP for the area for four consecutive terms, lost his bid to Mr Maxwell Kwame Lukutor in the May 13, National Democratic Congres (NDC) parliamentary primary.

“I thank you from the bottom of my heart. It has been great working with you and serving you over the years – I am grateful for the support and trust you have reposed in me over the years of service.
“I will always cherish the memories of experience of serving as your representative in the parliament of Ghana for four consecutive terms ending January 7, 2025,” he said.
Mr Woyome said he accepted the decision of the delegates to allow someone else to take over the role he was currently playing and said it was time for the NDC in the constituency to unite and work together to capture power from the New Patriotic Party in the 2024 general elections.
