The incumbent National Democratic Congress(NDC) Member of Parliament ,Benita Sena Okitey Duah has lost her seat to the New Patriotic Party (NPP) Parliamentary Candidate, Dr. Okoe Boye.<\/p>\n

Okoe Boye garnered 45,259 votes while Sena Okitey Duah had 43,092 votes out of the total votes cast.<\/p>\n

For the presidential \u00a0results the NPP had 43,878 votes while the NDC had 44,293 votes.<\/p>\n

‘My opponent is a baby’ – Okitey Duah<\/strong><\/p>\n

Okitey Duah in the NDC primaries beat her closest challenger Daniel Amartey Mensah and two other men by over 2000 votes to win.<\/p>\n

In an interview with Citi News after her victory in the NDC primaries, she described Dr. Okoe Boye as a minor who is scared of her. \u201cI want to assure you that he is nowhere near me and he is even scared of me and I am going to make sure he is kept in the bush because I even dealt with a more stronger candidate. This is a baby and I am going teach him how to do politics.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dr. Okoe Boye in a rebuttal however said he is fully focused on winning the Ledzokuku parliamentary seat in 2016 despite Sena\u2019s threats.<\/p>\n

\u201cShe called me a baby and that is quite and derogatory but I have always told my people I am into politics, I want to do politics that is dignified. I don\u2019t want to engage in unwholesome talk. Like I said the reason why I came into politics is to address these fierce problems in the community.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am not surprised she calls me a baby. When I was going for my primaries in the NPP, my opponents said similar things.I am not minded by talk. I believe in action and I am working on the ground. I know come 2016 my sister Sena will be in opposition.\u201d<\/p>\n
