Abanga Fuseini elected NPP National Youth Organiser

Abanga Fuseini Yakubu has been chosen as the National Youth Organiser for the New Patriotic Party (NPP). The decision came after the party's national executive elections took place at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on October 3, 2026. Mr Fuseini managed to get 1,550 votes, surpassing five other candidates in a closely fought contest.

Clement Opoku Gyamfi came in second with 631 votes, while Michael Osei Boateng received 78 votes. Vera Oye Bram-Larbi, Chris Lloyd Nii Kwei Asamoah, and Alfred Kumi Ababio garnered 44, 46, and 25 votes respectively. The election was part of the NPP's National Delegates Conference, which saw over 7,000 delegates from all over the country electing nine national executives.

The Electoral Commission ensured a smooth process and the voting was conducted at 31 polling stations at the stadium.

Mr Fuseini's campaign focused on youth mobilisation and strengthening the party's youth wing. He aimed to gather four million youth votes for the party's leader, Dr Mahamudu Bawumia, before the 2028 general election. Now, he will take over as the head of the NPP's youth wing, succeeding Salam Mustapha. He will be responsible for coordinating and mobilising young members and supporters across the nation.

Additionally, he will collaborate with the party's national executives and other bodies to bolster the party's youth base as they prepare for the upcoming general election.
