“Dome-Kwabenya Is Home” — Adwoa Safo Announces Comeback Bid for NPP Parliamentary Seat

According to a report by The 1957News on Friday, October 23, 2026, former Dome-Kwabenya Member of Parliament Sarah Adwoa Safo has declared her intention to contest the New Patriotic Party’s (NPP) parliamentary primaries in the constituency ahead of the next general election.

In a statement dated Thursday, October 22, 2026, Adwoa Safo explained that her decision followed careful consideration, consultations and engagements with party leadership. She said she would participate in the contest once the NPP officially releases the timetable and guidelines governing the parliamentary primaries.

Her announcement comes after she previously indicated that she was considering opportunities beyond Dome-Kwabenya. However, she said further reflection had reinforced her desire to return to the constituency and continue representing its residents in Parliament.

Adwoa Safo described parliamentary representation as a significant responsibility, stressing that serving the people of Dome-Kwabenya remained important to her. She also reaffirmed her connection to the constituency and her commitment to its residents.

“Dome-Kwabenya is home. It has always been home,” she stated.

The former legislator also highlighted the NPP’s electoral performance in the constituency during her years in politics. She noted that the party secured 63,373 votes in the 2012 general election, increased its tally to 65,488 in 2016 and recorded 75,041 votes in 2020.

According to her, the figures reflected the collective efforts of party members, supporters and constituents who contributed to strengthening the NPP’s electoral presence in the area.

Her decision to seek the party’s parliamentary nomination again could introduce another contender into the internal contest as the NPP prepares to select candidates for the next general election.

The parliamentary primaries will determine who receives the party’s endorsement to contest the Dome-Kwabenya seat. The process is expected to be conducted in accordance with the party’s official rules and electoral arrangements.

However, Adwoa Safo’s participation will be subject to the timetable and guidelines the NPP announces for the primaries. Further details about potential challengers and the campaign process remain dependent on the party’s internal electoral preparations.
