She beat Mr Tettey Ekpa by 38 votes to 12 in a second round of voting.

The two Members of Parliament for the area, Mr Enoch Teye Mensah and Mr David Ansong for Ningo/Prampram and Shai/Osudoku Constituencies respectively witnessed the elections.
In her acceptance speech, Madam Addo thanked her colleagues for their support and promised to work with everybody, including her opponents regardless of their political affiliations.
