2015 parliamentary primary
In June 2015, Nuamah contested the constituency primary with the hope of securing enough votes to allow him contest the constituency parliamentary election.[3] Five other people including the incumbent Owusu Afriyie Akoto and Josephine Hilda Addo, a former Member of Parliament for the constituency, contested the election. He won the election with 191 of the total votes cast.[3]
