On Saturday, December 17, 2022, delegates from the opposition National Democratic Congress (NDC) will meet in the Accra sports stadium to choose the party’s national executives. The party’s various constituencies are anticipated to send about 9,000 delegates to participate in the voting process.
The highly contested national chairmanship position will be between Samuel Ofosu Ampofo, the current chair, Johnson Asiedu Nketiah, the current general secretary, Nii Armah Ashiety, and Samuel Yaw Adusei, a former member of parliament.
After putting in a lot of effort for the party, the two front-runners, Mr. Asiedu Nketiah and Mr. Ofosu Ampofo, have both declared their confidence in gaining the prestigious chairmanship position.
Dr. Sherry Ayitey, a former minister of fisheries and aquaculture, will compete against seven other people for the role of vice chairman.
Sammy Gyamfi, the party’s current national communications officer, is the only candidate.
Along with other positions, the party will elect its National Organiser, Deputy National Organiser, Zongo Caucus Coordinator, and Deputy Communication Officer.
The following are those who have declared their preparedness to occupy the various portfolios in the party when given the green light.
