NDC will be in trouble - Newly elected Upper East Regional NPP Chairman assures
Elvis Awonekai Figo Atiah, who is the immediate past Regional Secretary, is optimistic of galvanizing the grassroot base of any political party in the region with strong leadership skills.
Elvis Awonekai Figo Atiah, the newly elected Upper East Regional NPP Chairman, has warned the ruling National Democratic Congress (NDC) that the Upper East Region will become a strong stronghold for the NPP. Atiah, who served as the immediate past Regional Secretary, is confident in his ability to mobilize the grassroots base of the NPP with his strong leadership skills.
With 177 votes out of 302 total votes, Atiah secured the position against two other contenders, while the NDC holds only 15 seats in the region. Atiah claims that the NDC has lost touch with the people of the Upper East Region and has not been able to provide sufficient developmental support. He believes it's time for the NPP to step in and save the region through his leadership.
The election, held at the Upper East Regional House of Chiefs on August 15, was conducted peacefully and successfully.
