Politics

Parliamentary bid

Affo-Toffey was elected as the National Democratic Congress parliamentary candidate for the Jomoro Constituency in August 2019.[3] She got 1,324 votes representing 87.4% whilst the other two candidates Akatia Kwaidoo, Nda Blay Armah polled 188 representing 12.4%, 4 representing 0.2% respectively.


Affo-Toffey won the 2020 parliamentary elections for Jomoro Constituency after polling 24,356 votes representing 55.5% against the incumbent member of parliament Paul Essien of the New Patriotic Party who had 19,889 votes representing 44.95%.

Since 7 January 2021, she has been one of the 40 women and the only one from the Western Region representing their respective constituencies in the 8th Parliament.



Member of Parliament

On 7 January 2021, Affo-Tottey was sworn in as the Member of Parliament representing the Jomoro Constituency in the 8th Parliament of the 4th Republic of Ghana.

She serves as a member on the Gender and Children Committee and the Lands and Forestry Committee of Parliament.


In her maiden address on the floor of parliament on 24 March 2021, she urged the government to reopen land borders which had been closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic to boost economic activities.

She stressed on the urgent need to reopen and regularize land border crossing at key entry points in the Jomoro Constituency such as Elubo, Jaway wharf, Newtown, Ellenda wharf and other border towns in Ghana. 

This was due to having several towns in her constituency serving as boarder towns between Ghana and Ivory Coast.



Challenging her Eligibility

After winning the 2020 Parliamentary election, Affo-Toffey was accused of holding a dual citizenship by Joshua Emuah Kofie, a resident of Nuba-Mpataba in her constituency. 

A court case was then instituted against her challenging her citizenship. 

At the last court hearing she did not show up and this led to a court bench warrant being issued against her on December 6, 2021.

However, on December 9, 2021, Affo-Toffey appeared in court with her lawyer, Edudzi Kudzo Tamaklo, and the MP for Ellembelle, Emmanuel Armah-Kofi Buah. 

The Sekondi Commercial Court A after short proceedings, rescinded the bench warrant instituted against her.

The club's name was changed to Jomoro FC and relocated from Accra, Greater Accra Region to Jomoro in the Western Region.

The club's was set to play their home games at the Crosby Awuah Memorial Park (CAM), in Aiyinase, home grounds of Karela United following the takeover.
