Nana Kojo Toku from Tarkwa-Nsuaem Constituency polled 415 valid votes to beat his main contender, Comrade Alhaji Gibrilu Alhassan Laminn, the former Ellembelle NDC Constituency Communications Officer, who managed to get 91 votes.

With this victory, Nana Kojo Toku is going to serve as the NDC Western Regional Chairman for sixteen (16) good years.

The former Ellembelle District Chief Executive (DCE) and the incumbent NDC Western Regional Vice Chairman, Daniel Eshun, failed to retain his position.
