1954

C. K. Tedam entered the political scene through membership of the Gold Coast Legislative Assembly in 1954. He was later elected to parliament as an independent candidate that same year (1954). He then co-founded the Northern People's Party with Mumuni Bawumia, Alhassan Braimah (J. A. Braimah), Tolon Naa Alhaj Yakubu Tali, Adam Amandi, Lawra Naa Abeifaa Karbo II, Imoru Salifu, and Simon Diedong Dombo(Mohammed Abdul -saaka). He stood and won another election to parliament in 1956 on the ticket of the Northern People's till 1957. After 1957 when Kwame Nkrumah banned sectarian parties based on ethnicity, region etc. with a focus on nationally represented parties, the Northern People's joined forces with other sectarian focused parties to form the United Party (Ghana) until 1964 when Ghana became a one party state after a referendum. C. K. Tedam was thus compelled to become a Convention People's Party (CPP) Member of Parliament or lose his seat. Becoming a member of the CPP also served another purpose as it meant the CPP government will reverse the suspension of his brother as Chief of Paga which was being contested by the Chief's brother. He also served as a Minister of Local Government during the regime of the Supreme Military Council (Ghana). CK. Tedam won another election in 1969 to serve in the second republic but was disqualified after a court ruling resulting from a legal suit that was brought against him. The suit sort to say that as the government had banned all CPP Members from politics, it meant he could also not be an MP. The suit was upheld by the courts and therefore he had to leave parliament. A by election was held and he supported his Niece Catherine Tedam for the position which she subsequently won.
