On June 25, 2021, Wilson Sossion, a vocal trade unionist, confirmed that he would be running for an elective post under the National Assembly (MP seat) without specifying which constituency he would represent.
According to Sossion, he has outgrown his role in KNUT and believes it is time for him to move fully into the political world to participate in shaping and promoting democracy and good governance.
"I will be representing workers, teachers included, in my position in the National Assembly and you can be sure I will be in the National Assembly during the 13th Session," he stated during an address to the press.
