The outgoing Greater Accra Regional Executive Committee of the National Democratic Congress (NDC) has highlighted efforts to promote party unity, internal cohesion and reconciliation as part of its four-year organisational record.
Regional Secretary Theophilus Tetteh Chai said the committee prioritised consultation, teamwork and cooperation among party stakeholders between November 2022 and November 2026.
In an address at the Greater Accra Regional Conference, he said the regional leadership encouraged reconciliation and brought experienced party members on board to support its activities.
The efforts, he explained, were intended to strengthen internal organisation and position the region for electoral success.
Beyond reconciliation, the committee undertook several programmes aimed at building the capacity of party structures and improving grassroots mobilisation.
These included training for constituency and branch executives, empowerment programmes for the Youth and Women’s Wings, and engagements with churches, markets and other stakeholders.
The committee also organised communication and media programmes on the party’s 2024 election manifesto, trained election directors in the various constituencies and undertook fundraising activities to support the election campaign.
Zongo community engagement and mobilisation programmes also formed part of the regional committee’s activities.
Mr. Chai acknowledged the advisory support of the Council of Elders, particularly Honourable Danny Anang and other members, whom he credited with contributing to unity and discipline in the region.
He also praised the region’s Members of Parliament for providing financial support for party activities, mentioning Parliamentary Caucus Chairman Honourable Okoe Vanderpuije and Secretary Honourable Ben George.
The Regional Secretary further expressed appreciation to the region’s MMDCEs, Chief Executives, constituency election directors, communicators and party workers.
He said the committee’s work had contributed to the NDC’s improved parliamentary performance in the 2024 elections, when the region increased its representation from 20 to 29 seats.
As the party elects new regional executives, Mr. Chai urged delegates to make choices that would protect the party’s unity and build on the progress recorded.
“We trust our delegates to make choices that will protect the unity of the Party and build on the progress made,” he said.
The regional elections are part of the NDC’s nationwide reorganisation ahead of the 2028 general elections, with the new executives expected to coordinate party activities and strengthen structures across the region.
