But for the disfavour of fate, Charles Cromwell Nanabanyin Onuawonto Bissue and Nana Ama Dokua Asiamah-Adjei would have become Ghana's first couple in Parliament.
The couple's dream of serving as members of the 9th Parliament of Ghana's Fourth Republic together, failed following their defeats in the 2024 general elections.
Charles Cromwell Nanabanyin Onuawonto Bissue, a former Western Regional Secretary of the and a former presidential staffer, won the party's parliamentary ticket for the Essikado-Ketan Constituency.
His wife, Nana Ama Dokua Asiamah-Adjei, who is the outgoing Member of Parliament for Akuapem North Constituency, decided against seeking reelection in the constituency.
