It is reported that several branch executives of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Hohoe constituency in the Volta Region have defected to the ruling New Patriotic Party (NPP).

Sources say notable members out of the six executives are Joseph Yawovi Adzewoda, the Youth Organiser for the Hohoe Midwifery branch, Mr. Bansakal, the Secretary of the Municipal Hospital branch, and Sulemana Mustapha, the Organiser for Janenana electoral Area.

In an interview with Adom News, Mr. Adzewoda cited the massive developmental projects undertaken by the Member of Parliament, John Peter Amewu, and the government in the constituency as the reason for their defection.

They expressed their commitment to supporting and campaigning vigorously for the NPP in the 2024 elections.

The Hohoe NPP Constituency Communication Officer, Samuel Azasu, is reported to have welcomed the defectors to the NPP and encouraged them to promote the party's accomplishments.

It is anticipated that the two major political parties, NPP and NDC will keenly contest and give each other a run for their money in the 2024 general elections.
