Claim NDC has never won parliamentary seat in Sekondi constituency, false

Ghana Fact-checking Coalition

Claim: An X user, @fentuo,_ has claimed that the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has never won the parliamentary seat for the Sekondi Constituency.

Source: X. Archived here.

Verdict: False 

Explanation: This claim was on the back of the NDC winning the 2024 Sekondi parliamentary seat. However, a quick Google search reveals that Albert Bosomtwi-Sam of the NDC was elected member of parliament for the Sekondi Constituency in 1992. News articles here and here show that Mr Bosomtwi-Sam was indeed MP for the area.
