• The founder of Glitz Africa, Claudia Kwarteng Lumor, has lost her bid to run for the NPP parliamentary seat in Oforikrom
• The Ghanaian businesswoman, who received 351 votes—second only to Michael Kwasi Aidoo, who received 666 votes—was the only female candidate out of five

Claudia Lumor, the chief executive officer of Glitz Africa, was unsuccessful in her first attempt to win the NPP's parliamentary candidacy for the Oforikrom Constituency.

I'm humbled by the love of the community, our chiefs, Queen mothers, the youth, children, etc.....

I ONLY wanted to serve, build better structures , break the camps, and increase NPP votes in the constituency.

This wasn't a game to win at all cost, but rather a journey to serve.

My dedication was bringing hope to people and building innovative structures to better the lifestyle of the community.
