Mr. Siah has vowed that Dr. Bawumia will win by no less than 53% of the votes in the region.

The Chairman made this statement in an interview on Adom FM’s Dwaso Nsem, with 12 days remaining until the highly anticipated electoral process.

Additionally, Mr. Siah declared that the NPP will flip three seats from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) to secure 12 of the 15 parliamentary seats in the region.

“We are all earnestly praying and waiting for December 7. I will secure 12 seats and leave the NDC with 5,” he said.

“I have been the Regional Chairman for almost 12 years, and I know what I’m saying. The NPP secured 3 seats in Western North under my tenure. I’m winning the Western region hands down,” he added.

In a related development, former NPP National Chairman, Freddie Blay, stated in October 2024 that the party will win the majority of seats in the region.

As a former Ellembelle MP, Mr. Blay, speaking on Asempa FM’s Ekosii Sen program, cited that the NPP will win back the Jomoro, Ellembelle, and Evalue-Gwira seats, which are currently held by the NDC.

He acknowledged that there have been a few issues that contributed to the NPP’s loss of these seats, particularly in Ellembelle.

However, it is not clear if these are the same three seats Mr. Siah has set his sights on.

Speaking on Accra-based Neat FM, he stated that government cannot boast of any developmental project in the area.

“There is no presidential candidate I can lead to campaign in some constituencies. Even in my own constituency, Jomoro if the roads are not fixed, it will be hard for me to campaign there. I have nothing to say and there is nothing to show. What projects has government done in Jomoro?” he quizzed.

As a constituency richly endowed with natural resources like oil and gas, the NPP chairman said they deserved better.

“Most raw materials are from Jomoro, yet when it comes to development, Ellembele is far ahead. The road is just 18 to 20km. The most annoying part is that the Jomoro road is being funded by GNPC and Ghana gas” he fumed.

Mr Siah warned that the party will lose in the region again if the Agona Nkwanta, Bowodie to Asenkagua, Mpohor and the Jomoro roads are not fixed.

“In 2020 I advised that galamsey activities be checked or we will lose Western region to NDC and it came to past. A lot of things have not been changed. These roads have been contracted so what are doing to the contractors for abandoning them we need to cut the whip if we are paying them,” he fumed.
