Member of Parliament for North Tongu Constituency in the Volta Region, Samuel Okudzeto Ablakwa has confidently declared his intention to secure a fourth term in the upcoming December 7 elections. At a press launch of the Tongu Chiefs Union in Juapong, he asserted his dominance in the constituency, dismissing his opponent, Dr. John Eleblu of the New Patriotic Party (NPP), as no match for him.

Ablakwa emphasized the enduring support of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in North Tongu, expressing certainty in his constituents' favor. He even suggested that the Tongu Chiefs Union could effectively end a politician's career by denying them the right to campaign.

Despite his strong stance against Dr. Eleblu, Ablakwa hinted at plans to involve him in Tongu's development after the elections, acknowledging Eleblu's background as a lecturer.

In previous elections, Ablakwa secured significant victories, notably defeating Dr. Eleblu's father, Christopher Kofi Eleblu, in 2016 and maintaining his lead in 2020 over NPP's Arku Richard Collins.
