Madam Sey, a beautician, polled 21,433 votes to beat Mr Jamal's 15,905 votes, according to provisional results from the Akwatia constituency.

During campaigning, Baba Jamal had derided Madam Sey as a mere 'hair dresser' who posed no threat to him.

The Akwatia constituency has long been a very stronghold of the New Patriotic Party (NPP). Baba Jamal wrestled the seat from then incumbent MP Dr. Kofi Adu Asare.
