The Member of Parliament for the Jomoro constituency in the Western Region, Dorcas Affo-Toffey, is confident about her re-election prospects in the upcoming December 7, 2024, elections.
As a first-time MP, she believes she is the most suitable candidate to retain the seat for the National Democratic Congress (NDC).
In August, Affo-Toffey and her team were involved in a serious accident at Komenda Junction on the Takoradi-Cape Coast-Accra Highway while returning to Accra after launching her campaign at Half Assini.
Following the incident, she was flown to the U.S. for further medical treatment and returned to Ghana on October 24.
Despite concerns regarding her absence during the campaign season, the MP asserts that her constituents have already decided to support her, indicating that a traditional campaign is unnecessary for her victory.
In an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, she expressed, “I was poised to win the election. By the grace of God, we have voted spiritually, and I have already won. My people have even told me not to come to Jomoro.”
“By this time, every MP is busily campaigning but because of the foundation I have laid, my executives go out there and they can amass people at a rally even in my absence,” she stated.
