Ablekuma West was one of 45 newly created constituencies for the 2012 general election. It covers the districts of Dansoman, Sahara, Gbegbeyise, Agege, Glefe, Opetekwe and Shiabu. Before the 2016 general election, incumbent MP Ursula Owusu was challenged in an NPP primary election by constituency chairman Theophilus Tettey Enyo and businessman Roni Nicole. The primary proved controversial, with disputes over voting registers used resulting in legal challenges by party members and Enyo's withdrawal. Owusu beat Nicole by 554 votes to 317, with up to 400 members reported to have boycotted the contest in protest.
Ursula Owusu had been the Member of Parliament for Ablekuma West since the constituency was created in 2012. Following the 2020 election, she declared that she would not lose the seat until death. At the following election in 2024, she lost the seat to the runner up from the National Democratic Congress (NDC) candidate in the 2020 election.
