The National Democratic Congress (NDC) in the Ashanti Region has unveiled its newly elected regional executive team, led by Augustus Andrews Nana Kwasi as Regional Chairman, following the party’s November 2026 regional executive elections.
The new leadership team, which comprises officers responsible for the party’s administration, organisation, communication, finance, youth and women affairs, is expected to steer the affairs of the NDC in the region and strengthen its grassroots structures ahead of future political engagements.
Augustus Andrews, who emerged as the Regional Chairman, will lead the new administration, supported by John Kwame Jabari, who has been named First Regional Vice Chairman, and Adjei Baffour Acquah, the Second Regional Vice Chairman.
Daniel Baah Acheamfour has been elected Regional Secretary, with Alice A. Anthony serving as Deputy Regional Secretary.
Richmond Osei has taken up the position of Regional Organiser, assisted by Ivan Bilson Yeboah as Deputy Regional Organiser.
In the financial administration of the party, Marvin Philip Frazor Norman has been named Regional Treasurer, while Prince Attah will serve as Deputy Regional Treasurer.
The communications portfolio will be headed by Abdul Waliu Kabore Mahmud as Regional Communications Officer, with Jerry James Sukah serving as his deputy.
The newly constituted executive also makes provision for the party’s Zongo, women and youth wings, which remain important components of its grassroots mobilisation and electoral activities.
Mubarik Inusah has been named Regional Zongo Caucus Coordinator, while Gloria Korshior Huze takes charge as Regional Women Organiser.
Patricia Gariba and Adiza Fuseini have both been listed as Deputy Regional Women Organisers.
Raphael Opoku Danquah has been named Regional Youth Organiser, while Issah Ali has been listed as Deputy Regional Youth Organiser.
Razak Koampa Avoliya is also featured among the newly elected executives in the official composition released.
STRENGTHENING PARTY STRUCTURES.
The emergence of the new regional executive team comes at a critical period for the NDC as it seeks to consolidate its political influence and strengthen its organisational structures across the Ashanti Region.
The region remains an important political battleground, making effective leadership, grassroots mobilisation and sustained engagement with party members essential to the NDC’s electoral fortunes.
The new executives are therefore expected to work closely with constituency, branch and electoral area officers to improve coordination, promote internal cohesion and strengthen the party’s presence in communities across the region.
Their responsibilities will also include mobilising party supporters, addressing organisational challenges, coordinating political activities and ensuring effective communication between the regional leadership and the party’s national administration.
The women’s and youth wings are particularly expected to play significant roles in expanding the party’s grassroots reach, encouraging participation and mobilising new supporters.
Similarly, the appointment of a Zongo Caucus Coordinator is expected to strengthen engagement with Zongo communities and other identifiable groups within the party’s support base.
CHALLENGE OF UNITY AND MOBILISATION.
Attention will now turn to how the new leadership will manage the expectations of party faithful, particularly in bringing together supporters of the various candidates who contested the regional elections.
Political observers consider unity and effective internal administration crucial to the success of the new administration, especially in a region where the party continues to pursue strategies to improve its electoral performance.
The ability of the executives to work collectively, maintain regular engagement with constituency structures and address the concerns of grassroots supporters will be important in determining the strength of the new regional administration.
With Augustus Andrews at the helm, the new team is expected to provide the leadership and organisational direction needed to advance the NDC’s interests in the Ashanti Region.
The composition of the executive team represents a new chapter in the party’s regional administration as the NDC looks towards consolidating its structures and positioning itself for future political contests.
