Uwumborche Bitermi Gideon declares intention to contest NPP parliamentary primaries in Saboba

The New Patriotic Party (NPP) Constituency Secretary for Saboba, Uwumborche Bitermi Gideon, has declared his intention to contest the party’s parliamentary primaries in the constituency.

Mr Uwumborche says his ambition is driven by a commitment to strengthen the party’s grassroots structures, improve internal communication and promote unity as the NPP prepares for the 2028 general elections.

He believes his experience in party organisation and grassroots mobilisation has equipped him to serve the constituency in a broader political capacity.

“I want to build a constituency that is organised, vibrant and ready to recapture power in Saboba,” he said.

Mr Uwumborche has served as the NPP Constituency Secretary for Saboba since 2022. Before assuming the position, he held several roles within the party, beginning as a Unit Committee Member for the Saboba East Electoral Area in 2005.

He later served as Electoral Area Coordinator for Saboba East from 2011 to 2014 and as Constituency Communications Director between 2014 and 2018.

From 2018 to 2022, he was the Constituency Organiser, supporting branch development, training party activists and mobilising members.

As Communications Director, he coordinated communication between the party and the public, helping to explain its policies and programmes to voters.

Outside party politics, Mr Uwumborche is a teacher and school administrator with more than 14 years of service in the Saboba District.

He holds a Master of Public Administration from the Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology (KNUST), which he completed in 2025, and a Bachelor of Education in Social Studies from Valley View University.

He also holds a Diploma in Basic Education from St Joseph College of Education in Bechem.

In addition to his professional and political responsibilities, he serves as an Advisory Board Member of Saboba AG Hospital.

His decision to enter the parliamentary race comes as the NPP prepares to select its parliamentary candidates for the next general elections.
