Samuel Abu Jinapor has emerged as the only person to declare his intention to contest the New Patriotic Party (NPP) parliamentary primary for the Damongo Constituency for the third consecutive time.
The former Minister for Lands and Natural Resources announced this in a statement following the close of the official period for the declaration of intent in the party’s ongoing parliamentary selection process.
Mr Jinapor expressed gratitude to the NPP fraternity in Damongo for the confidence reposed in him, describing the development as a demonstration of unity, solidarity and a shared commitment to retaining the constituency seat.
He said the opportunity to emerge as the sole aspirant for the third consecutive time was an honour and pledged to work towards maintaining the NPP’s hold on the Damongo parliamentary seat in the 2028 general elections.
He also assured the constituency, regional and national leadership of the party, as well as the party’s presidential candidate, of his commitment to securing victory for the NPP in the constituency.
Mr Jinapor attributed his continued political journey to the support and goodwill of party members and the people of Damongo, whom he thanked for giving him the opportunity to represent them in Parliament.
He particularly acknowledged the people of Damongo for their trust and generosity, saying he remained grateful for the privilege of representing them in Ghana’s Parliament.
The lawmaker said he would once again seek the mandate of the electorate in 2028 to continue serving the constituency with dedication, humility and a commitment to development.
He further pledged to consolidate the gains made in the constituency and pursue initiatives that would promote its growth and progress.
His emergence as the sole aspirant for the third consecutive time placed him in a strong position ahead of the NPP’s parliamentary selection process, although the party’s applicable procedures would determine the final outcome.
Mr Jinapor ended his statement with a call for unity among party members and supporters, expressing confidence in the NPP’s ability to retain the Damongo seat in the next general elections.
He urged the party fraternity to remain united and focused on the task ahead, stressing the need to consolidate existing gains and sustain the party’s political fortunes in the constituency.
The Damongo parliamentary seat remains an important constituency for the NPP as the party prepares for the 2028 general elections.
